Actress Anne Heche has been on life support and is not expected to survive after crashing her car into two homes last Friday, a representative for her family and friends told Deadline.
Heche, 53, has been hospitalized since the accident, where she was allegedly speeding in her blue Mini Cooper and crashed into one home and then another, leaving the second in flames.
She is suffering from an anoxic brain injury, the representative told Deadline. How does that affect the body?
Anoxic brain injury
Anoxic brain injuries happen when all oxygen is cut off from the brain. After about four minutes of losing oxygen supply, brain cells begin to die off, according to the Shepherd Center, a private, nonprofit hospital in Atlanta.
Causes of brain injuries
Brain injuries do not necessarily originate in the brain. They can be caused due to any physical trauma that affects the body's ability to take in oxygen, such as a stroke or trauma to the lungs.
Symptoms of brain injuries
Things to look for that could signal a brain injury include both physical limitations and behavioral changes, such as:

APPLETON, Wis. (AP) — Police in Appleton, Wisconsin, shot and killed a man after responding to a domestic disturbance call, authorities said Saturday.
The shooting happened after officers were confronted by an armed man when they were called to a home in Appleton on Friday night, the Wisconsin Department of Justice's Division of Criminal Investigation said in a news release.
Officers tried to negotiate with the man but later shot him, the department said. He died at an Appleton hospital.
No officers were hurt during the confrontation.
A firearm was recovered at the scene and body camera footage captured the shooting, according to the Justice Department's news release.
The Appleton police officers involved in the shooting were placed on administrative leave, which is policy after a shooting.
Authorities did not release any additional information. | https://www.ncadvertiser.com/news/article/Police-shoot-and-kill-Wisconsin-man-after-17371497.php | 2022-08-13T15:31:57Z | https://www.ncadvertiser.com/news/article/Police-shoot-and-kill-Wisconsin-man-after-17371497.php | false | null |
All across Appalachian Eastern Kentucky, the story of flood victims is the same: Homes that they had lived in for decades, properties that were safe for generations were wiped out by a 1,000-year flood of torrential rain.
“My papaw was almost 80 years old. He lost everything in the house that he has lived in since he was two years old,” says Lakyn Bolen, 26, a resident of Knott County, where 14 inches of rain fell. “It’s nothing that we’re used to, we don’t get stuff like this. And the thing is, a lot of the people in this area don’t have flood insurance because they’re not even in a flood zone.”
Authorities are still counting the number of homes destroyed and people displaced across a swath of Appalachia. At least 38 people have died, including four children, with more still missing. The National Weather Service reported that the rainfall over July 26-29 was “historically unheard of,” with less than a one in 1,000 chance of it happening over any given four-day period in the region.
What comes next is less clear. The region is still suffering from power outages, a lack of clean water and destroyed roads. But residents tell TIME that they are determined to rebuild in the same areas—partly out of tradition, partly because they have no choice. However, many worry that the effects of climate change and the legacy of mining in the region mean that their homes will be vulnerable to being wiped out again.
“The history here is so long and rich. People say, why do people build in flood areas? You know, if you’ve been here, there’s not a lot of flat land, and it’s generational land that’s handed down to families. So of course, they’re going to put a trailer on the land they inherited from grandma,” Charly Wise, Executive Director of the Floyd County Chamber of Commerce, tells TIME. “Climate change changed everything.”

Wise adds: “The damage from all the strip mining here for years took a lot away, a lot of the natural protection of the hills from getting flooded. A lot has changed.”
Climate change and coal
The unique topography of Appalachia consists of steep, rugged mountains that enable rain to move quickly and cause flash flooding because there’s not much soil to absorb the water. This phenomenon is made worse by the effects of climate change, which exacerbates severe weather.
“This is clearly not a local phenomenon, this is a result of climate change,” Chris Barton, a professor of forest hydrology and watershed management at the University of Kentucky, says. “When you have extreme heat, you get more evaporation, more transpiration, more moisture in the atmosphere. When that atmosphere becomes saturated, that water has to come down and unfortunately, when it comes down in a place, like it did (here) that’s not really adept at dealing with those types of rainfall amounts, the results are going to be devastating.”
Scientists also link mined mountains to faster flooding, which Appalachia is full of. Appalachia was the primary source of coal used in the U.S. until 1970, meaning the area’s mining history plays another major role in flooding.
“In the early 1900s, this country needed coal to build it,” Jim Stewart, a member of the Floyd County Community Foundation who’s been organizing recovery efforts, says. “We burned coal, that’s why we’ve got global warming, that’s why it’s warmer than it’s supposed to be. That’s why we’re getting more rain than we’re supposed to get.”
The damage
“This is my lifelong home where all my family is. What we’ve lost, it’s not materialistic things, it’s sentimental value. People have passed down their homes, passed their land to their children and their grandchildren. That’s what makes it home,” Danielle Eckles, Bolen’s sister and a Letcher County resident, tells TIME. “It’s not a house, it’s not a vehicle, it’s the people around you that you know, love you. People that don’t even like each other are helping each other in this time, because that’s what we do.”
Eckles fled her single-wide trailer with her husband and three children when the flooding began. All they had time to grab was baby formula and diapers. Eckles says the water was up to her calves by the time they got outside. The trailer was swept away by the flood shortly after. Eckles and her family are currently staying with loved ones, but plan to resettle somewhere in the area eventually.
The poverty rate in Appalachian Kentucky was 24.5% in the 2010s, compared to the national average of 15.6% at the same time, according to Fahe, a nonprofit that focuses on empowering Appalachian communities. The decline in coal mining work yielded generational poverty and low incomes throughout the region—which is a crucial factor considering that impoverished communities usually suffer the most damage from natural disasters.
“This is going to take time to recover,” says Bolen. “They’ve already estimated the cleanup to be five to seven years. Not only that, but the impact that it’s had on mental health in Appalachia, it’s unreal.”
Old stereotypes resurface after flooding
Many residents of the region also said that they have had to deal with intensely negative messages across social media criticizing Appalachians following the floods. The commentary is rooted in misconceptions about flood patterns in the region, and a lack of understanding that the flooding has gotten worse.
“For people saying that we need to move out; ‘Why would we live somewhere where this stuff happens?’ We didn’t know this was gonna happen,” says Bolen. “People went to bed that night not knowing what was going to happen and a lot of people never woke up from their sleep because their houses literally washed down the road.”
Political affiliations have prompted similar hate speech. Eckles talks about how internet trolls express a victim-blaming mentality against conservative-voting flood victims. The region voted heavily in favor of President Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020—with up to 90% of residents supporting him. “[The flood] didn’t stop at someone’s house and ask who they voted for,” says Eckles. “It didn’t look at their ballot before it flooded their home.”
Wise mentioned a cartoon depicting the flooding published in the Lexington Herald-Leader, captioned, “When it rains, it rains on the poor,” that people in her community found offensive. Wise pointed out that even throughout Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky has a distinct reputation plagued with stereotypes. (The newspaper says that the cartoon was not meant to disrespect residents of Eastern Kentucky, but to lament the disaster that they faced.)
These old biases have also resulted in concerns that residents will not get the aid that they deserve. On Aug. 9, Kentucky Gov. Andrew Beshear blasted reports that the Federal Emergency Management Agency was denying claims for Eastern Kentucky flood victims. “Let me say to people applying for disaster assistance: No. 1, do not give up,” Beshear says. “No. 2, if you’re denied, go and look these people in the eye.
Local politicians have highlighted that some payouts are just a few thousand dollars—far too little to rebuild and replace a lifetime worth of belongings.

Moving forward
Wise, Eckles, Bolen and Stewart were all born and raised in Eastern Kentucky and it’s where they intend to stay. They agree that it’s going to take creativity to adapt to the evolving environment of 21st-century Appalachia.
“Intuitively, I would say, you’re probably asking for trouble if you’re gonna stay there if these types of storms are going to become more and more frequent, but at the same time, there’s a real sense of place,” says Barton. “With that thought in mind, you really do want to look and see what alternatives there are; Different types of housing, can you move them up the side of the mountain just a little bit.”
The Kentuckians explained that people may disagree with their choice to rebuild and stay somewhere becoming increasingly dangerous, but that every landscape is changing and they are incredibly capable of adapting to stay in one of the most special places in the world.
“The people of Appalachia are very resilient and we will overcome it,” says Bolen. “I have no doubt in my mind that we’ll just come back better than we were.”

DALLAS, Jan. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Highland Global Allocation Fund HGLB ("the "Fund") today announced the declaration of monthly distributions of $0.081 per share, payable on the dates noted below. Under the Fund's level distribution policy, the annual distribution rate has been reset to an amount equal to 8.5% of the average of the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") per share, as reported for the final five trading days of the 2021 calendar year. The Fund is declaring distributions of $0.081 per month for January through March 2022.
The following dates apply to the distributions declared:
About the Level Distribution Policy
In March 2019, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Board") approved a level distribution policy (the "Level Distribution Policy") under which the Fund makes monthly distributions to stockholders at a constant and fixed (but not guaranteed) rate that will reset annually to a rate calculated based on the average of the Fund's NAV per share (the "Distribution Amount"), as reported for the final five trading days of the month preceding the announcement of distributions. The Distribution Amount applicable to Q1 2022 was reset based upon the results of the distribution rate calculation. The Distribution Amount applicable for future periods may be reset based upon the results of the distribution rate calculation.
There can be no guarantee that the Level Distribution Policy will be successful in its goals. The Fund's ability to maintain a stable level of distributions to shareholders will depend on a number of factors, including changes in the financial market, market interest rates, and performance of overall equity and fixed-income markets. As portfolio and market conditions change, the ability of the Fund to continue to make distributions in accordance with the Level Distribution Policy may be affected.
Shareholders have the option of reinvesting distributions in additional common shares through the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan, or electing to receive cash by contacting AST, their financial adviser or their brokerage firm. Shareholders who wish to receive their distribution in cash must opt out of the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan. For further information, shareholders should carefully read the description of the Dividend Reinvestment Plan in the prospectus.
The Board may amend the Level Distribution Policy, the Distribution Amount or distribution intervals, or the Fund may cease distributions entirely, at any time, without prior notice to shareholders. The announcement of, amendment to, or later termination of this Level Distribution Policy may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares of common stock.
The Fund may at times, in its discretion, pay out less than the entire amount of net investment income earned in any particular period and may at times pay out such accumulated undistributed income in addition to net investment income earned in other periods in order to permit the Fund to maintain a stable level of distributions. As a result, the dividend paid by the Fund to shareholders for any particular period may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by the Fund during such period. The Fund intends to distribute all realized net long-term capital gains, if any, no more than once every twelve months.
To the extent that sufficient investment income is not available on a monthly basis, the Fund's distributions may consist of return of capital in order to maintain the distribution amount. A return of capital occurs when some or all of the money that shareholders invested in the Fund is paid back to them. A return of capital does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield' or ‘income.' Any such returns of capital will decrease the Fund's total assets and, therefore, could have the effect of increasing the Fund's expense ratio. In addition, the Level Distribution Policy may require the Fund to sell its portfolio securities at a less than opportune time to meet the distribution amount.
Shareholders should not make any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of the Fund's distributions or the Fund's Level Distribution Policy. With each distribution that does not consist solely of net investment income, the Fund will issue a notice to shareholders that will provide detailed information regarding the amount and composition of the distribution and other related information. The amounts and sources of distributions reported in the notice to shareholders are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the distributions for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during its full fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send individual shareholders a Form 1099-DIV for each calendar year that will tell them how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes. Please consult your tax advisor about any tax implications applicable to you in light of your particular circumstances.

1 killed after strong winds cause stage collapse at music festival in Spain
CULLERA, Spain (CNN) - One person died Saturday and dozens more were injured, three of them seriously, after a stage collapsed at a music festival near Valencia, Spain, according to local officials.
Disaster struck at the Medusa Festival in the town of Cullera near Valencia at 4:18 a.m. local time “due to a strong gust of wind,” they said.
The man killed in the stage collapse incident was 22 years old, the Spanish Civil Guard told CNN.
Early Saturday morning festival management announced that the festival had been suspended.
“Due to inclement weather occurring in the early hours of Aug. 13, 2022, and with the aim of guaranteeing the security of the concert-goers, workers and artists gathered at the Medusa Festival, the festival organization suspends its activity for the time being,” festival management said on Instagram.
“The festival site is cleared as a preventative measure with the aim of facilitating the work of the emergency and security services at the Medusa Festiva,” it added.
Videos posted on social media early Saturday showed strong winds and structures falling from the stage as large crowds of festival attendees were evacuated.
The Civil Guard said there were about 50,000 people at the festival site when the incident happened. The press office added that evacuation of the festival took about 40 minutes and the exit doors to the site were functioning properly.
The Spanish Civil Guard, Spain’s paramilitary police unit that is in charge of the investigation, also said there was more damage than just the partial collapse of the stage.
“Due to a strong gust of wind, the main entrance and the main stage of the Medusa Festival in Cullera fell to the ground,” the Civil Guard press office in Valencia told CNN.
The Valencia section of Spain’s national weather service (AEMET) said on Twitter that warm breezes were producing very strong gusts of wind and abrupt increases in temperature.
Around 3 a.m. local time, the temperature was a blistering 40.5 Celsius (104.9 degrees Fahrenheit) at the Alicante-Elche airport, just south of the concert site, on the Mediterranean coast -- with winds measuring 82 kilometers (around 50 miles) per hour.
Temperatures have been soaring across Europe with droughts declared in several parts of England and wildfires in France.

Thrilling first day at World Rugby Sevens Challenger Series in Santiago, Chile
Tournament winners will gain promotion to the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series 2023
Kazakhstan, Kenya, Japan and Poland claim perfect win records in women’s competition ahead of quarter-finals on Saturday
Hosts Chile, along with Germany, Hong Kong and Tonga win both opening matches in men’s tournament
There was no shortage of drama, determination and scintillating skill on day one of the World Rugby Sevens Challenger Series 2022 in Santiago, Chile.
With the prize of promotion to the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series 2023 at stake, the 24 competing teams played with passion and commitment on the opening day of the three day competition at Estadio Santa Laura in view of the majestic Andes mountain range.
In the women’s tournament Kenya, Japan, Poland and Kazakhstan secured a pair of victories and will be looking ahead to Saturday’s quarter-finals.
Kazakhstan were impressive throughout, convincingly beating Colombia 22-5, and Mexico 24-5. Japan, who are looking to return to the World Series as a core team, beat Mexico 44-5 and Colombia 21-12.
Poland were the day’s top scorers with a 71-0 thrashing of Papua New Guinea in Pool E, which followed their earlier 36-5 victory over Argentina, who bounced back to beat Belgium 15-10 to keep their quarter-final hopes alive.
Kenya took charge of Pool D with a hard fought 17-15 win over China, followed by a 31-5 defeat of South Africa. China and will face South Africa in a crucial final pool match on Saturday morning.
The men’s competition saw Tonga and Hong Kong secure their progress to Saturday’s quarter-finals by winning both of their matches against Jamaica and Zimbabwe in Pool B.
Germany are in pole position in Pool C with a perfect win record after beating Lithuania and overcoming Uganda 17-14 in a pulsating encounter thanks to a hattrick of tries from Jack Hunt.
Hosts Chile were cheered to a 24-7 victory over Papua New Guinea in the last match of the day to build upon their earlier 19-14 win over Georgia as they look sure to progress to the quarter-finals.
Chile men’s captain Joaquin Huici said: “The first game was a tough one against Georgia and it was the same against Papua New Guinea, although we managed to control the game. Tomorrow we face Korea in our last pool match, we will get some rest and focus on them.”
Play begins on Saturday 13 August at 09:28 local time (GMT-4) when Colombia and Mexico take to the pitch to kick-off an action-packed day of international rugby sevens, with the quarter-finals set to take place from 17:00 to 20:58. The all-important finals will take place on Sunday with the women at 18:47, followed by the men at 19:20.
The Challenger Series was introduced in 2020 to boost rugby sevens’ development across the globe and provide a pathway for promotion to the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series.
The global event sees teams from all six World Rugby regions represented in a competition format that replicates the Olympic Games with three pools of four teams.
The top two from each pool along with the two best third-placed teams will qualify for the quarter-finals, before the semi-finals and final will decide the tournament winners on Sunday.
There is plenty of top class experience in the line-up as nine men’s teams have appeared on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series previously as invitational teams. Meanwhile China and Japan have both been core teams on the women’s Series, while another eight women’s teams have played at least once in the Series.
Five of the women’s teams and nine men’s teams competing in Chile have also qualified for Rugby World Cup Sevens 2022 where they will play in front of an anticipated crowd of 165,000 fans across three days in Cape Town on 9-11 September. – WORLD RUGBY | https://www.sports247.my/thrilling-opening-day-of-world-rugby-sevens-challenger-series/ | 2022-08-13T16:00:20Z | https://www.sports247.my/thrilling-opening-day-of-world-rugby-sevens-challenger-series/ | false | 1 |
Scarsdale should invest in signs when roads lead into Scarsdale. We should be proud of our beautiful “Village in a Park.”
Currently, nearly all of the nonstate roads’ (Route 125/Weaver Street is a state road) signs that I have noticed state, “Village Speed Limit 30 mph.” A good example is Saxon Woods Road coming from White Plains into Scarsdale. This sign doesn’t identify the boundary or make a great impression. | https://www.scarsdalenews.com/opinion/letters_to_the_editor/our-beautiful-village-deserves-beautiful-signage/article_8b492b42-1b1d-11ed-87d0-cbab4ce48745.html | 2022-08-13T16:05:39Z | https://www.scarsdalenews.com/opinion/letters_to_the_editor/our-beautiful-village-deserves-beautiful-signage/article_8b492b42-1b1d-11ed-87d0-cbab4ce48745.html | false | null |
The US Congress on Friday adopted the Joe Biden investment plan on climate and health: a significant political victory for the president three months before the mid-term elections.
The Democrats of the House of Representatives approved the initiative of more than 430,000 million dollars, after the vote in the Senate last Sunday. The text, which should put the country on track toward its greenhouse gas reduction goals, has yet to be signed into law by Biden.
(Also read: Joe Biden gets a breath of fresh air amid crisis in the US.)
“Today the American people won. The special interests lost,” the president tweeted shortly after the vote.
With the bill’s passage, “families will see lower prescription drug prices, lower health care costs and lower energy costs. I hope to sign it into law next week,” he added.
Acclaimed by associations fighting climate change, the reform includes 370,000 million dollars for the environment and another 64,000 million for health.
Baptized “Inflation Reduction Law”, it plans to reduce the public deficit with a new minimum tax of 15% for all companies whose profits exceed 1,000 million dollars.
Republicans criticize that public spending will be increased unnecessarily.
Former President Donald Trump used his Truth Social network to call on all Republicans to speak out against it, at a time when Biden is suffering from great political attrition ahead of the November midterm elections, the outcome of which is uncertain and usually hurts the party in general. the power.
(Also: Inflation moderates in the United States and gives the economy a slight respite)
Investment in the climate
Biden came to power with huge reform plans.
He initially proposed an even bigger investment plan, but Democrats were forced to scale back their ambitions to mostly satisfy Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, a state known for its coal mines. His support was essential because of the slim Democratic majority in the Senate.
Yet it remains the largest climate investment ever made in the United States.
Biden wants the country to meet his goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by 2030 compared to 2005.
The government even aspires to lower at least 50% for that year.
“It would be very difficult to overstate the importance of this bill,” Dan Lashof, director of the World Resources Institute, said this week. “By creating very strong incentives to invest in solar and wind power, it will virtually dry up the market for coal-fired electricity for the next decade.”
(Keep reading: Joe Biden renews aid to Colombia to fight drug trafficking)
With this reform, an American will receive up to 7,500 dollars in tax credits for the purchase of an electric car and the installation of solar panels on rooftops will be subsidized by 30%.
Investments are also planned for the development of CO2 capture techniques, the care of forests and the renovation of homes for families with fewer resources.
Billions of dollars in tax credits will also be offered to the most polluting industries to help them in the energy transition, a measure highly criticized by the left of the party, which despite everything had to accept it.
Many Latinos benefit from the law because, according to the Climate Power movement, 40% of households with the most difficulty paying energy bills in the United States are Latino and 50% are African-American.
cheaper drugs
The second most important part of this investment plan corrects the enormous inequalities in access to health care in the United States, in particular by reducing the price of medicines.
Medicare, a public health system intended, among others, for those over 65 years of age, will for the first time be able to directly negotiate the prices of some medications with pharmaceutical companies, in order to lower them.
(You may be interested in: Biden celebrates approval of his climate and fiscal law in the Senate)
It also guarantees seniors that they pay no more than $2,000 per year for their medications, starting in 2025.
Cheaper medicines help the Latino community in particular, especially those who are insulin dependent. According to the Department of Health, in 2018 Hispanics were 1.3 times more likely than non-Hispanic whites to die from diabetes.
The bill also plans to extend the protections of the Affordable Care Act, the health insurance reform law, better known as “Obamacare”, which contained subsidies to help families pay for health coverage.

Arsenal were in fine form as they treated the Emirates crowd to a fine opening home victory of the Premier League season.
Gabriel Jesus got his first goal for the Gunners with a sumptuous strike from a standing position. And his second followed soon after, nodding home from a corner to make it a long afternoon for Leicester. William Saliba scored a bizarre own goal but moments later, Granit Xhaka restored the two-goal lead after a Danny Ward error.
Leicester thought they were back in it yet again when James Maddison scored but just seconds later - once again - Arsenal were two goals back in front when Gabriel Martinelli scored a beauty.
In reality, though, this was a mauling from the Gunners - who could have scored a hatful and have sent a real message that they mean business this season. After the disappointment of last year, Mikel Arteta looks like he has corrected the faults and is launching an assault on the Premier League this campaign.
READ MORE: Seven celebs you didn't know were footballers - from Bradley Walsh to Gordon Ramsey
Jesus a real coup
Could Jesus be the signing of the summer? On today's evidence, Arteta might have struck gold when he prised the Brazilian away from Manchester City.
After telling the Arsenal board that he needed a striker, he told them exactly who he wanted and they have gone and signed exactly that man - and in what could be the tightest top-four battle in years - Jesus' goals might be the difference between fifth anf fourth.
His first goal against Leicester on Saturday was majestic, lifting the ball over Danny Ward from a standing position while his second was a far-post header after some disastrous defending from the Foxes at a corner. He also set up Granit Xhaka and Gabriel Martinelli's efforts.
Odegaard captain's performance
Handing the captain's armband to Martin Odegaard might have come as a bit of surprise to some but the 23-year-old led from the front on a sunny afternoon in north London. The Norway international, who dons the armband for his country, pulled the strings with ease.
It was a performance that his predecessor in that No. 10 role, Mesut Ozil, would have been proud of. Sitting in between the Leicester midfield and defence, he was so hard to pick up while popping up with some sensational passing.
It is easy to see why Arteta considers Odegaard one of the first names on the team sheet.
Martinelli combination
Wesley Fofana might be having nightmares tonight after being bamboozled by Martinelli on the left flank for Arsenal all afternoon. The defender, who might be playing in his last game for Leicester, was regularly terrorised by a winger who has started the season in brilliant form.
The young forward capped off his performance with a stunning strike after the Foxes made the scores 3-2 to give the home side a two-goal cushion yet again. A flying Martinelli could be one of the more unsung players this season after a fine display.
His combination with Jesus at the front might be pivotal with the two Brazilians causing all kinds of trouble. Arteta has been desperate for some forward players who are on the same wavelength and he has them now.
Xhaka all smiles
Many had written off Granit Xhaka after all the red cards and combustible performances but against Leicester, the midfielder was a revelation. The Switzerland international has had the captaincy took off him but it appears to have given him more freedom.
Xhaka added steel to midfield and appeared to switch positions with Oleksandr Zinchenko throughout the contest as he popped up on the left flank on several occasions as well. After netting the third goal for the Gunners, he looked absolutely over the moon and it is clear to see he cares deeply about Arsenal.

Earlier, Salman Rushdie, who faced death threats over his book 'The Satanic Verses', was "stabbed" on stage in Western New York state.
Earlier, New York Governor Kathy Hochul said the author is alive and has been transported to a local hospital.
"He is alive and has been transported, airlifted, to safety... The event moderator was attacked as well; he's getting the care he needs at a local hospital," she said.
The New York State Police said in a statement that a male suspect ran up onto the stage prior to a speaking event at the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua and attacked Rushdie.
It said the author suffered an apparent stab wound to the neck and was transported by helicopter to an area hospital. A suspect has been taken into custody.
The interviewer with Rushdie was also attacked during the incident and he suffered a minor head injury, the police said.
"State Police are investigating the attack on author Salman Rushdie prior to a speaking event at the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, NY," the statement said.
The seventy-five-year-old author, who caught the limelight for his novel 'Midnight's Children' in 1981, had received a fatwa for his 1988 book. The Satanic Verses book led to a fatwa, a religious decree, by the then Iranian revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. The threat forced him into hiding for several years.
Reacting to the incident, veteran Bollywood lyricist Javed Akhtar condemned the barbaric attack. "I condemn the barbaric attack on Salman Rushdie by some fanatic. I hope that NY police and the court will take the strongest action possible against the attacker," Javed Akhtar tweeted.
Meanwhile, UK prime minister Boris Johnson tweeted, "Appalled that Sir Salman Rushdie has been stabbed while exercising a right we should never cease to defend. Right now my thoughts are with his loved ones. We are all hoping he is okay."
And home secretary of UK Priti Patel said, "Shocked and appalled to hear of the unprovoked and senseless attack on Sir Salman Rushdie. Freedom of expression is a value we hold dear and attempts to undermine it must not be tolerated. My thoughts are with Sir Salman and his family."
"State police are investigating an attack on author Salman Rushdie prior to a speaking event at the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, NY," the statement said. American author Stephen King said, "I hope Salman Rushdie is okay."
Suzanne Nossel, CEO of PEN America, said they can think of no comparable incident of a public violent attack on a literary writer on American soil.
"PEN America is reeling from shock and horror at the word of a brutal, premeditated attack on our former President and stalwart ally, Salman Rushdie, who was reportedly stabbed multiple times while on stage speaking at the Chautauqua Institute in upstate New York," Nossel said. | https://en.prothomalo.com/international/americas/g2w7ec39y9 | 2022-08-13T16:26:31Z | https://en.prothomalo.com/international/americas/g2w7ec39y9 | false | 1 |

“It’s not going to bring my mom back.” This is what Terryln Hall said to Alabama authorities as she asked them to spare the life of Joe Nathan James Jr., the man responsible for murdering her mother. Despite this, on July 28, Alabama authorities ignored Hall’s wishes and carried out the execution. Alabama’s Attorney General Steve Marshal justified the execution, arguing he must “ensure that justice is done for the people of Alabama.”
Sadly, many prosecutors and officials pursue harsh sentences, even death, against the wishes of the victims in a case. Our criminal justice system seeks to balance the needs of our communities, victims and even offenders in an effort to serve the public’s interest and work for the people. That means keeping our neighborhoods safe, holding individuals accountable in a manner that is fair and equitable and using taxpayer resources judiciously.
Victims’ voices must be centered in advocacy in the name of the people. However, far too often, the wishes of victims have been reduced to only those seeking revenge for their pain while disregarding those seeking redemption and healing Victims have a range of opinions about punishment, but nearly all agree, what they most want is to be safe and protect others.
Across the country, every attempt to recall or challenge a modern prosecutor includes a common theme and tactic: A handful of victims are pushed front and center to criticize data-driven policies that reduce our reliance on mass incarceration. We most often hear from victims in the aftermath of a tragedy who decry these policies as unjust, unsafe and unwanted by the victim community.
So are policies like those pursued by District Attorney George Gascón serving the public interest and centering victims’ voices? Or do victims prefer and is Los Angeles better served by the approach favored by those seeking to recall him?
Surveys show that victims of violent crime in Los Angeles support policies like Gascón’s that promote rehabilitation and prevention over longer periods of incarceration by a margin of 2 to 1. Gascón’s policies also serve the broader public interest as they are shown to reduce recidivism, which means reductions in future offending, victimization and taxpayer spending.
There are indeed victims who want the maximum sentence imposed, but the suggestion that this is the desire of most victims ignores the truth. Victims want to ensure they are safe and that no one else will have to experience the same thing. That’s why, when asked, most victims want support for things ranging from medical bills and therapy to home security systems that give them a sense of safety rather than a longer period of incarceration.
Unfortunately, our wasteful spending on incarceration has deprived victims of the resources they want and deserve. State spending on victim services represents about 1% of what California spends on the prison system. A recent survey of 711 victims of crime conducted by the Prosecutors Alliance found that nearly 40% of victims were never offered support to recover from the crime. .
In cases where an arrest is made and a case is filed, victims’ opinions on sentencing varies. As you can imagine, in the immediate aftermath of a trauma wherein someone loses a loved one, victims often do want the maximum sentence imposed. Often, however, the desire to see the harshest penalties imposed wanes as victims make their journey from victim to survivor. Years after a tragedy, most victims simply don’t want someone else to go through what they experienced.
It’s a sentiment reflected in the research, which shows that six in 10 victims prefer shorter prison sentences and increased spending on prevention and rehabilitation. In addition, victims prefer that the criminal justice system focus more on rehabilitating people who commit crimes than punishing them by a two-to-one margin.
Powerful special interests like police unions and the prison guard lobby are spending millions of dollars to lift up only the voices of victims who back harsh sentencing policies. After all, to enforce these policies we need more police officers, more prison guards and more prison cells. However, with the majority of the victim community seeking other interventions, making policy based on those who are most visible and vocal is not advocacy for the people, let alone victims of crime.
The Prosecutors Alliance and our members are working to ensure victim support and healing is at the center of our work. This year, in conjunction with our partners, we successfully secured over $77 million to support victims of crime. The funds include $50 million in direct assistance for survivors, $23 million to expand Trauma Recovery Centers statewide, and $7 million to reimburse survivors for expenses ranging from funeral costs to relocation. Modern prosecutors know the value of healing and the safety it brings to communities.
It’s time to give greater meaning to supporting victims of crime, and prosecutors like George Gascón are heeding that call by implementing policies that serve our victim community and the public interest alike.
Cristine DeBerry is the founder and executive director of the Prosecutors Alliance of California.

Bengals' Chris Evans: Poor effort Friday
Evans carried the ball eight times for minus-three yards and caught his only target for nine yards in Friday's preseason game against the Cardinals. Getting the start in the backfield with both Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine held out, Evans had an absolutely awful showing as a lead back. The second-year player out of Michigan averaged 4.5 yards per carry as a rookie while flashing some receiving skills, but performances like this could make it tough for Evans to even hang onto the No. 3 spot on the depth chart ahead of Trayveon Williams.

Giants' Kadarius Toney: Possible hamstring injury?
Toney appeared to be favoring his hamstring during practice Tuesday, according to NJ.com's Darryl Slater. Slater notes that it was Toney's fourth limited practice (out of 11) during training camp, but with this one the reduced workload may not have been planned ahead. While neither player nor team has mentioned an injury, it's possible Toney won't be available for Thursday's preseason game against the Patriots. Reports on Toney out of Giants camp have been mixed, and perhaps trending downward, as the 2021 first-round reportedly had a bunch of drops and mistakes in a full practice Monday. He missed seven games as a rookie and had arthroscopic surgery this offseason.
CBS Sports
Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: No targets in pro debut
Robinson was listed as a starter but wasn't targeted in Thursday's 23-21 preseason win at New England. Fellow starting wide receiver Kenny Golladay and No. 1 quarterback Daniel Jones played the first two possessions of the game, so Robinson likely logged at least as much action as the established pair. A second-round pick in the 2022 Draft, Robinson impressed throughout the offseason program and training camp and was listed on the first-team offense on the Giants' first unofficial depth chart, putting himself in good standing in a receiving corps that's injury prone. At the moment, second-year pro Kadarius Toney (leg) isn't practicing, and Sterling Shepard (Achilles) remains on the PUP list, leaving Golladay, Robinson and Darius Slayton as the team's top healthy options.

Among a number of players battling injuries, O'Shaughnessy was reported to be one of those who is not expected to face the Chiefs. Currently third on the Bears' depth chart at tight end, he's competing for a backup role with Ryan Griffin (undisclosed).

Ravens' Tylan Wallace: Picks up knee issue
Wallace is questionable to return to Thursday's preseason game versus the Titans due to a knee injury, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Prior to his departure in the first quarter, Wallace hauled in one of two targets for three yards and lost four yards on one carry. After that end-around, he went to sideline medical tent to have his ankle looked at, but the issue actually impacted his knee. If Wallace is unable to reenter the contest, the Ravens' top available wide receivers will be Jaylon Moore and Binjimen Victor with Rashod Bateman, Devin Duvernay and James Proche (undisclosed) not playing Thursday.

Titans' Dez Fitzpatrick: Lack of impact
Fitzpatrick managed only reception on four targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 23-10 preseason loss to the Ravens. Fitzpatrick played throughout the game but saw the majority of his targets in the closing moments. That's not a particularly positive sign for his potential role with the Titans come the regular season. That's even more the case given the positive comments that have come from camp regarding the performance of Racey McMath, Fitzpatrick's primary competition for the fifth spot on the receiver depth chart.

Browns' Nick Harris: MRI on tap Saturday
Harris (knee) will undergo an MRI on Saturday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. Harris suffered a right knee injury on the second play of Friday's preseason opener in Jacksonville. Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski did not have details following the game and is waiting on the results of the MRI. This will be a significant loss if Harris is forced to miss time. He's logged thousands of practice reps with the first team offense since 2020 and is expected to start at center this season.

Vikings' Camryn Bynum: Listed as starting safety
Bynum is listed as Minnesota's starting free safety on the team's first preseason depth chart released Wednesday, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports. He's in a battle for the job with first-round draft pick Lewis Cine. Bynum's placement atop of the depth chart is likely in deference to his veteran status, given that he mostly played on special teams in 2021. Even if Cine breaks camp as a starter, Bynum should get plenty of snaps in the secondary this season.

Seahawks' Marquise Goodwin: Likely out for preseason opener
Goodwin (hamstring) isn't in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Steelers, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports. The veteran receiver has impressed Seattle's coaching staff with his efforts in training camp thus far, per Tim Weaver of USA Today. However, Goodwin is on track to watch Saturday's game against Pittsburgh from the sidelines after he picked up a hamstring injury in practice. The speedster signed with the Seahawks in May and figures to compete for snaps with Freddie Swain (back), Dee Eskridge (hamstring) and Bo Melton, behind usual starters DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.
CBS Sports
Patriots' Pierre Strong: Seven touches in preseason opener
Strong rushed six times for 25 yards and caught his only target for no gain in Thursday's 23-21 preseason loss to the Giants. Strong has reportedly shown good receiving ability in camp, which could be his ticket to a complementary role in the wake of James White's retirement, but he failed to make much of an impact in that regard Thursday. It's also a bit worrisome that he was deployed after both J.J. Taylor and rookie sixth-round pick Kevin Harris, which suggests that Strong could be below both in New England's backfield pecking order, but the 2022 fourth-rounder has time to make up some ground on that front. On the bright side, Strong's average of 4.2 yards per carry was the highest among Patriots rushers Thursday, which gives him some momentum to build on for the second preseason game against Carolina next Friday.

The 28-year-old has now thrown a quality start in 19 straight appearances. He's posted a 2.73 ERA and allowed just seven homers in 142 innings this year.

Japan, Japan, Tue, 04 Jan 2022 01:05:44 / Comserve Inc. / -- Face Mask Market is anticipated to grow at the rate of 24.6% CAGR by 2027
A face mask is used as a protection against various airborne diseases such as flu, COVID-19, mumps, measles, and chickenpox. It covers the half-face by protecting the nose, jawline, and mouth. In protecting medical services laborers from work-associated presentation to irresistible infections and miniature life forms, the N95 respirator masks have a key role. As a result, the Face Mask Market is anticipated to grow at the rate of 24.6% CAGR by 2027.
Download Sample PDF Of This Report:- https://www.sdki.jp/sample-request-115258
The primary factor in enhancing market growth is increased consumer awareness regarding airborne health infections such as COVID19, influenza, mumps, chickenpox, measles, tuberculosis (TB), diphtheria, and others. Another factor augmenting the face mask market's growth is the increase in government initiatives coupled with several communities and NGOs to make people conscious about airborne diseases through online and offline advertisements. However, the fluctuations in the cost of raw materials and restricted growth in the future are the key factors limiting the market growth.
Face Mask Market based on Type
• Surgical
• Respirator
• N-Series
• R-Series
• P-Series
• Others
Face Mask Market based on Nature
• Disposable
• Reusable
Face Mask Market based on End Use
• Hospitals & Clinics
• Industrial & Institutional
• Personal/Individual Protection
Face Mask Market based on Geography
• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Rest of the World
In the face mask market based on type, the respirators segment dominated the market with the highest share. This is because respirators are determined to be useful in protecting an individual from an infectious disease along with harmful environmental viruses, bacteria, and harmful pollutants that pose a threat to the body. This type of mask is used in several industries, including healthcare centers, due to the effectiveness of respirator masks.
The reusable masks segment is expected to have major growth over the forecast period. This is majorly ascribed to the increasing awareness about the benefits of reusable masks and is considered better compared to disposable masks. Moreover, the reusable masks are biodegradable, low cost, easy to use, and readily available to everyone. In addition, with the COVID-19 outbreak, consumer spending on healthcare products, such as masks, face shields, and sanitizers has shown a significant rise, increasing segment growth.
On the basis of end users, the industrial and institutional end use segment is witnessing potential growth in the market.
The face masks used for industrial & institutional end use are designed to avoid the inhalation of airborne fragments generally associated with environments where sanding, grinding, sweeping, and other dusty operations happen in these industries. These factors are boosting the demand for a face mask in the industrial and institutional end-use segment.
In terms of geographical face market, North America is projected to command the market. The growth in the region is majorly ascribed to the rising incidence of various severe and chronic diseases including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and pneumonia, along with the rising cases of COVID-19.
Globally, contagious respiratory diseases have been increasing over the years. However, the disease spread owing to the deadly pathogen, factors such as rising pollution, inappropriate hygiene, smoking habits, and lower immunization increase the spread of the disease. Thus, the growing prevalence of respiratory diseases has escalated the usage and sales of face masks and higher market value. Moreover, increasing awareness about the benefits of face masks in respiratory diseases is positively impacting the global market size of the face mask.
The face mask market report consists of the list of key market players - The 3M Company, Honeywell International Inc., Shanghai Dasheng Health Products Manufacture Co., Ltd, Cantel Medical Corp., Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd., Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Cardinal Health, Inc., Owens & Minor, Inc., Ambu A/S and Medline Industries, Inc.

The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox play for the 2,313th time today. These two teams are on opposite ends of the division, but fans can still count on a stiff matchup.
Boston stole one off New York last night in an extra-inning endeavor. Clay Holmes blew the one-run lead the Yankees had in the bottom of the ninth. Tommy Pham hit a single in the 10th to give Boston their 56th win of the season.
"We love a Fenway Friday walk-off!" - RedSox
Pitching in this one are Frankie Montas for the Yankees and Kutter Crawford for the Red Sox.
This is Montas' second start for New York after being acquired from Oakland. It would be hard for this start to go worse than his first. Montas posted a 3.18 ERA in 19 starts in Oakland, but his first outing for New York lasted only three innings after surrendering six runs.
Kutte has bounced between a starting role and the bullpen this season, but he's doing it well as he holds a 4.30 ERA and a WHIP of 1.24.

New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox Betting Odds
New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox Best Pick
Aaron Judge may be the best hitter in baseball history. His 46 home runs are beyond impressive, but what's really impressive is that he's held an average above .300 as well. In today's game, there are plenty of power hitters, but very few who can hit the longball while maintaining a high batting average. Bettors can count on him to continue his historic seson.
Aaron Judge to Hit a Home Run (+180)
New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox Prediction
The Yankees are slipping as they have a record of 11-19 in their last 30 games. After last night's loss, they no longer have the best record in the American League. The Houston Astros hold that honor (73-41). Therefore, Montas needs to have a solid start tonight to give the Yankees a much-needed victory.
New York -1.5 (+105)

Bodies by Design: Lack of intensity is holding you back
Are you getting frustrated with the lack of result in the gym? You go to the gym, you eat well, get the right amount of water, rest, and you are still not seeing results. What gives?
The thing holding you back is something that you have complete control over: it’s the intensity with which you exercise.
Intensity is something that’s difficult for the outside observer to measure but is felt within your body as you go through the motions of an exercise.
- It’s how hard you push yourself to go as heavy and as quickly as possible.
- It’s picking up a weight that feels hard to handle.
- It’s putting a boost behind each stride as you run.
- It’s resisting the urge to simply go through the motions.
- It’s outdoing your efforts from last time.
Now we understand the urge to put out token effort in your workout, going through the motions while cutting corners along the way. We all have days when the weights feel extra heavy and our energy stores feel depleted, and those days will naturally be less intense.
However, when low intensity workouts are your norm, you simply won’t ever achieve the results that you’re hoping for. And this is something that you completely control.
So, as you go into your next workout, think about the intensity that you’re bringing. Are you pushing yourself with each rep? Could you go heavier? Could you be faster?
Fight the urge to be comfortable while you exercise. There’s plenty of time throughout your day to feel comfortable, just not while you’re working out.
Does this make sense?
Attack your next workout with 100% intensity and set a new standard for yourself to continuously push to become stronger, faster, and leaner.
You’ve got this!
No excuses
Are you coming up with a myriad of reasons why you aren’t able to exercise with intensity today?
Don’t let the feeling of being tired keep you from an invigorating workout. Just think of how fantastic you’ll feel afterwards with all the feel good endorphins flowing through your body.
No excuses! Get going! You’ve got this!

TCU Women’s Rifle: 2022-23 Schedule Released
TCU’s Women’s Rifle team has been on point for over a decade. Last year, the squad won the National Championship in the Air Rifle competition. It was their fourth Natty in the discipline, having previously won in 2010, 2012, and 2021.
However, the Frogs have not won the overall championship, which combines the air rifle competition with the smallbore competition. Last year’s overall national champion was Kentucky, who outshot the Frogs by just three points.
As the 2022-23 season approaches, the Horned Frogs team knows that if they want to win that championship, they will have a challenge to get there. On Friday, head coach Karen Monez announced the team’s upcoming schedule. They will face some very tough competition along the way. Five upcoming opponents appeared in last season's championship field of eight. In November, the team is one of four competing in Morgantown, West Virginia. The other teams are West Virginia, Alaska, and Kentucky. These four teams have combined for every national championship since 2006 and all but one since 1998.

“The team is excited and ready to get the season started,” said Monez. “Gaining match experience during the regular season is always the goal when setting the team’s schedule. We have some challenging matches on this year’s schedule that will help the team prepare to compete at the NCAA Championships in March. With two returning for their fifth year, as well as three seniors on the team and a talented group of three freshmen, I anticipate the team will be ready for the challenges ahead. I look for them to set the bar high and perform at a high level throughout the season.”

Mother sues Walmart after child's death in parking lot
FRIDLEY, Minn. — A Coon Rapids woman is suing Walmart over a 2019 fire in the parking lot of the company's Fridley store that took the life of her 6-year-old daughter. Essie McKenzie alleges that Walmart's policy to allow RVs and other vehicles camp in their store parking lots led a California couple to stay overnight in August of 2019, and eventually use a hotplate that started McKenzie's van on fire with her two children sleeping inside. The lawsuit alleges wrongful death, and says by allowing people to camp with no supervision, permit requirements or sanitation, Walmart has maintained dangerous conditions on store grounds.

If you create a Word document where you want to include page numbers, the author’s name, the document title, or similar details without distracting from the content, you can use headers and footers.
As the names imply, headers appear at the top of the document and footers appear at the bottom. The items that you include in the header or footer are dimmed in appearance. By default, headers and footers display on every page of your document. However, you can alternate by even and odd pages or have the first page of your document different than the rest.
Let’s look at how to add headers and footers in Word as well as customize them to fit your needs.
Add a premade header or footer in Word
Because the process is the same for both headers and footers, you can follow these same steps to add either one or both to your document.
Word provides premade headers and footers that give you a layout such as columns or a banded strip. You can then use the suggested details or add your own.
Step 1: Go to the Insert tab and head to the Header and footer section of the ribbon.
Step 2: Open the Header or Footer drop-down menu and pick the layout you want. You’ll notice some layouts have preset details like document title or page number.
Step 3: After you select the layout, you’ll see the header or footer open automatically. Enter the details into the highlighted text area.
Step 4: When you finish customizing one or both locations, pick Close header and footer in the ribbon or double-click a spot outside of the header or footer area in your document.
Add a blank header or footer
You don’t have to start with a premade layout for your header or footer. You can simply open one or the other and enter the details you want.
Step 1: Go to the very top of your document for a header or very bottom for a footer.
Step 2: Double-click inside the area of the top or bottom margin.
Step 3: When the header or footer area opens, place your cursor inside and enter the details you want.
Step 4: After you finish, pick Close header and footer in the ribbon or select a spot in your document.
Customize a header or footer
You can insert fields for document details, change the pages you want to display a header or footer, and adjust the size of the header or footer area.
Step 1: Open the header or footer area by double-clicking the spot inside the top or bottom margin. This displays the Header and footer tab with tools in the ribbon.
Step 2: To add the date and time, a document field, or an image, select one of these options from the Insert section of the ribbon.
Step 3: To change the pages where you want the header or footer to appear, go to the Options section of the ribbon. Check the box for Different first page to use a specific header or footer on the first page only. Or, check the box for Different odd and even pages to use certain headers on every other page.
Step 4: To adjust the size of the header or footer, use the boxes in the Position section of the ribbon. You can enter a measurement into the top or bottom box or use the arrows to increase or decrease the size in small increments.
Step 5: To use a layout or include page numbers with a certain layout, use the drop-down menus on the left side of the ribbon in the Header and footer section. You’ll see the same options as the first set of steps here for using a premade header or footer as well as page numbers.
Remove a header or footer
If after you add a header or footer to your document, you want to remove it, you can do so easily.
Step 1: Go to the Insert tab and head to the Header and footer section of the ribbon.
Step 2: Open the Header or Footer drop-down menu for whichever area you want to remove.
Step 3: Select Remove header or Remove footer.
Headers and footers in Word give you the ideal spots for document details you want to display. Whether page numbers, the date, title, or even a company logo, take advantage of those spaces in your next document.
For more, look at ways to improve your workflow in Word or some things you might not know you can do in Word.

China’s Mounting Risks Set Stage for PBOC to Rein In Stimulus
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- China may be ready to curb some of the excess liquidity sloshing in the banking system as it turns its focus to mitigating risks in the financial industry.
The first sign of that could come at Monday’s medium-term lending facility operation. Eight out of 12 economists and analysts polled by Bloomberg are forecasting that the People’s Bank of China will withdraw cash through MLF for the first time this year by offering less cash than the 600 billion yuan ($89 billion) maturing this month. The median estimate is for a 400 billion yuan injection, and all of those polled expect the rate to be kept unchanged.
The shift in the central bank’s operations indicates that Beijing is now prioritizing limiting financial risks over relying on ultra-loose liquidity to support growth. While ample cash conditions have pushed interbank rates to multi-year lows, the excess funds aren’t being funneled into the real economy. Instead of boosting loans to corporates and households, banks have ramped up purchases of government bonds and highly-rated credit by increasing leverage.
The PBOC “should be preventing leveraged positions in the bond market from building up,” which calls for draining liquidity, said Adam Wolfe, emerging markets economist at Absolute Strategy Research Ltd. in London. But the need to support growth means the central bank is likely to roll over most of the MLF funds to avoid sending a wrong signal that it’s withdrawing liquidity support, he said.
While excess cash has highlighted the limits of monetary policy in stimulating growth, expectations are that the PBOC will remain accommodative -- in contrast with global central banks including the Federal Reserve that are hiking rates to tame inflation. That’s because data on Monday are expected to show a mixed economic picture of China. While industrial output and retail sales are expected to have improved last month, property investment probably slowed.
The PBOC may have hinted at its impending decision in a quarterly monetary policy survey released this week. It pledged to “not over-issue money” and to avoid massive stimulus amid inflation threats. It sees consumer inflation exceeding 3% in some months this year after the price barometer accelerated to a two-year high of 2.7% in July.
The central bank has been regulating liquidity via daily open market operations. It reduced the daily injection amount via seven-day reverse repo to two billion yuan from 10 billion yuan in July, citing weaker demand from primary dealers. Still, the seven-day interbank borrowing cost remains near the lowest in over two years, indicating the magnitude of surplus cash. The PBOC injected 2 billion yuan on Friday at 2.1%, matching maturities.
A significant drainage of cash via MLF could stoke concerns over policy tightening and trigger a selloff in stocks and bonds. However, market reaction would be muted in case of a mild withdrawal or full rollover. A net injection of cash could spur a rally in risk assets on bets of further PBOC easing.
Demand for the MLF may decline in tandem with market rates, according to China Merchants Securities Co. and Australia & New Zealand Banking Group. Banks may not be inclined to borrow from the PBOC at 2.85% when they can raise funds via one-year debt at below 2%.
The gap between broad credit and money supply growth suggests that additional cash injection from the central bank is not critical at this stage to fan recovery, with the economy still facing turmoil in the property sector and recurring Covid outbreaks. JPMorgan Chase & Co. sees corporates saving funds rather than than investing amid growth uncertainty.
At a Politburo meeting last month, Chinese authorities downplayed their growth target of 5.5% this year -- which economist think is out of reach -- while saying country should strive for “the best outcome” possible for economic expansion.
That’s also likely to keep the cash withdrawal moderate, according to Ding Shuang, chief economist for Greater China and North Asia at Standard Chartered Plc. “The PBOC may not want to be seen as shifting to a tighter policy stance.”
Here are the MLF injection forecasts:

Megan Thee Stallion is weighing in on Stranger Things' series-long love triangle.
The Grammy Award winner, 27, grilled Natalia Dyer about her character Nancy rejecting Joe Keery's Steve and whether she's "Team Jancy" or "Team Stancy" while co-hosting The Tonight Show this week with Jimmy Fallon.
"I'm Team Stancy. I want Steve," she declared on Thursday's episode. "Let's talk about it though. Okay, so boom. At first, you liked Steve. You were into Steve, and then you just kind of like dumped him. No caution, he didn't know what was happening. Poor Steve."
"Y'all keep throwing the kids on him to babysit. He keeps saving y'all life. All he do is save y'all life. He was beating everybody up, and you're like, 'Oh man, I'm going to Jonathan. Sorry,'" Megan added.
Dyer, 27, who has been romantically linked to Jonathan actor Charlie Heaton since the first season premiered in 2016, responded with a laugh. "I do feel bad. Honestly, I just think the way Jonathan and Nancy happened, I was like, she doesn't always make the most morally right decisions all the time. But that's human," she said.
Netflix
"She's a hot girl," Megan said, before adding, "Wait, wait, wait. 'Cause we didn't even get to the juicy part. So then, in this last season, you was flirting with Steve. So like, what's it really giving, Nancy? ... I feel like you like Steve still."
"You know, I have options, I guess," Dyer said as applause rang out from the live audience.
Fallon, 47, made the assumption that Nancy is "probably not even thinking about a love triangle" with everything else going on, to which Dyer responded, "That's really how I feel. Everyone's [says] 'Stancy, Jancy' but I think she probably just needs a little 'me' time after all of it. Maybe a little therapy even. Like, they're still in high school, it's pretty intense."
Netflix
"So much to think about," Meg added. "Jonathan is boring. She's so smart, she's so pretty. She's got things to do. Yes, we love Nancy."
Heaton, 28, previously told PEOPLE about navigating their characters' relationship versus their offscreen dynamic when season 3 premiered in 2019. "Obviously, we have different relationships, but it's like we both care about the character relationships as well," he said.

HONOLULU (AP) — The candidates running in Saturday's primary election to succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. David Ige include a former first lady, a retired mixed martial arts champion and a congressman who moonlights as a Hawaiian Airlines pilot.
Democratic U.S. Rep. Kaiali‘i Kahele's decision to run for governor has opened up his congressional seat representing rural Oahu and the Neighbor Islands. In the U.S. Senate, incumbent Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz is also up for reelection and is facing a primary challenge from a little-known candidate.
Hawaii is a vote-by-mail state so voters have been mailing their ballots and placing them in drop boxes across the islands since late last month. Election clerks in each county have made a few voter service centers available for people registering to vote at the last minute or voting in person.
In the governor's race, the leading Democratic candidates are Kahele, former Hawaii first lady Vicki Cayetano and Lt. Gov. Josh Green. On the Republican side, former Lt. Gov. James R. “Duke” Aiona, retired MMA fighter BJ Penn and Honolulu City Councilperson Heidi Tsuneyoshi are in the running.
Ige has served two four-year terms and is ineligible to run again. The winner of the Democratic primary would be the favorite to win the general election in the liberal state.
Many voters say Hawaii's high housing costs are a top issue for them. The median price of a single-family home is over $1 million in Honolulu, Maui and Kauai counties.
Cayetano said she would build rent-to-own housing and work with the counties to streamline requirements impeding affordable housing construction. Green said he would issue an executive order to eliminate red tape and streamline approvals and enforce existing laws to shut down illegal vacation rentals. Kahele said he would build targeted workforce housing and impose a vacancy tax.
Aiona said he would eliminate the state Land Use Commission, which he blamed for slowing housing development.
Herbert Rowland, an Oahu construction worker, said he likes Green's plans for tacking Hawaii's housing problem and homelessness.
“I’m from this island, been here all my life. I don’t want my children to move off this island because it’s too expensive and they can’t find a house,” Rowland said while holding a Green campaign sign and waving at passing cars in Honolulu.
Large numbers of travelers and “overtourism” overwhelming popular sites are another major issue. Annual visitors to Hawaii hit a record 10 million in 2019. Numbers plummeted early during the COVID-19 pandemic but have since come roaring back.
Green proposed charging all travelers over the age of 12 a $50 fee. He said this would raise $350 million to $400 million that the state could use to restore parks, shorelines and build housing. Cayetano endorsed such a fee and said eliminating illegal vacation rentals was a good first step.
Kahele said Hawaii needs to reimagine tourism with a focus on Indigenous knowledge, the aloha spirit and culture.
Aiona said fees would be good if they're used to maintain parks and trails but he urged caution because the higher costs could deter visitors who fuel Hawaii's economy.
Kahele and Cayetano questioned income Green received while lieutenant governor from a limited liability company called Green Health International LLC. Green, who has continued in his emergency room doctor side job while lieutenant governor, said the money was for work he performed as a physician.
Kahele drew attention this year for his own side job as a Hawaiian Airlines pilot and his heavy use of proxy voting in Congress. Like everyone who’s voted by proxy, he submitted a required letter attesting he was “unable to physically” vote at the Capitol. He cited “the ongoing public health emergency.”
Mona Chang Vierra, a teacher, principal and educator, said she liked Cayetano's business experience and her commitment to the community. Over 34 years, Cayetano built the biggest laundry services provider in Hawaii, serving hotels and hospitals on three islands. She resigned as president in February.
“She’s highly successful. Built her business from the ground up," Chang Vierra said.
Cayetano became first lady in 1997 when she married then-Gov. Ben Cayetano during his first term in office.
In U.S. House races, state Rep. Patrick Pihana Branco and former state Sen. Jill Tokuda are among six candidates competing for the Democratic nomination for Hawaii’s 2nd Congressional District. Kahele, the incumbent, decided to run for governor instead of seeking reelection, leaving the position up for grabs.
Among Republicans, former U.S. Air Force intelligence analyst and businessman Joe Akana and business owner Joseph Webster are seeking the job.
In the 1st Congressional District, attorney and political newcomer Sergio Alcubilla is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Ed Case in the Democratic primary. Conrad Kress, Patrick Largey and Arturo Reyes are competing for the Republican endorsement.
In the U.S. Senate race, Schatz is being challenged in the Democratic primary by Steve Tataii, a conflict resolution consultant. Tataii made an unsuccessful bid for Congress in 2016.
In the Republican primary for U.S. Senate, state Rep. Bob McDermott is among five Republicans seeking his party’s nomination. | https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/Hawaii-voters-picking-nominees-in-race-to-succeed-17371577.php | 2022-08-13T17:08:49Z | https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/Hawaii-voters-picking-nominees-in-race-to-succeed-17371577.php | false | 16 |
GMA fans call out host TJ Holmes for ‘checking out’ guest Megan Thee Stallion during live TV interview
GOOD Morning America fans claimed host Loutelious "T.J." Holmes was reportedly "checking out" guest Megan Thee Stallion during their live TV interview.
On August 12th, the GMA host, 44, spoke with the Suga rapper before she performed her most recent track, Body.
During the segment, the interviewer had a huge smile on his face as he stood next to Megan, 27.
The rapper arrived on the stage to promote her new album, Traumazine, which was also released the same day.
The duo then cheered for "the hotties" in the massive crowd.
While the former CNN correspondent mentioned Megan's "relationship with the fans," an audience member screamed out: "I love you!"
The Fever singer replied: "Love you too!"
T.J. got into the cheery mood and responded: "Yeah!"
As the interview continued, the TV personality could not take his eyes off the rap star while moving his hand in the air, just slightly close to her stunning black bodysuit.
One fan noticed his flirtatious moment and tweeted: "T.J. Holmes low-key losing his mind over Megan Thee Stallion...but he trying to keep it professional. Lots of laughs!"

TOO HOT FOR TV?
Megan was the latest artist to participate in the Summer Concert Series of the morning show.
Unfortunately, the music star was unable to fully show off her famous dance moves to the viewers.
Not only did the show bleep out many of her lyrics, but viewers also noticed her twerking skills edited via quick camera movements.
Fan slammed the GMA producers for editing out her iconic twerking during her on-air performance.
Aside from often cutting away from the crowd, the camera operators chose to only film her from mainly the waist up.
THE BACKLASH
One upset fan wrote: “They must have told Thee Stallion not to shake her a** on #goodmorningamerica.
“And then they keep cutting the camera when she’s dancing. Shaking my head. Who edited this?”
Another upset viewer blasted: “I can't stop laughing at GMA strategically changing the camera angle to hide Meg's a**.
"They bleeped 75 percent of the song and won't show twerking.”
A third critic wondered: “Why have her there at all if that is how are you gonna do her?”
A fourth person stated: “Baby #GMA was not trying to catch Megan twerking on camera,” along with a series of crying and laughing emojis.
Another commentator argued: “The GMA camera people shooting around Megan The Stallion's twerking.”
This is not the first time the Summer Concert Series has faced backlash from irate music fans.
When K-pop group Aespa performed for GMA in July, fans slammed the show for abruptly cutting them off in the middle of their live performance. | https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/5992299/gma-host-tj-holmes-guest-megan-thee-stallion-lnterview/ | 2022-08-13T17:11:30Z | https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/5992299/gma-host-tj-holmes-guest-megan-thee-stallion-lnterview/ | false | 1 |
Singer, actor, mogul, reality star, influencer, and now podcaster?
One of the most entertaining individuals in the world said he is about to do a podcast, stating that the new greys in his Caesar haircut are a signal for him to get focused.
On Friday, Aug. 12, he took to Instagram and captioned a video, “I need a podcast or a morning show!! I got grey hairs now so I’m focused! I’m ready to settle down and work from one space station!”
“One big Office with everything in it!! Starting with a podcast! — would y’all watch it?? You can say no I won’t be hurt — I’m lit 4ever so I think it will be fun!! Talk to me – Podcast buyers hit me I’m in Atlanta,” he said.
As he peers into his cell phone video (and after he complains about his nappy chest hair), he says announces his new move.
Almost on que, emergency vehicle sirens start to ring out and Ray J says, “That’s right, ring the f###ing alarm!”
The alarm is to attract as he put is “Big Podcast Buyers.”
He said he wanted to get the podcast deal “like today.”
According to Ray J, there were 2 or 3 people he wanted to link with, selling himself by saying, “All I know how to do is bring the numbers and bring the entertainment.”
One of those podcast buyers was Charlamagne the God, who told him to holler at him about his network. | https://allhiphop.com/news/ray-j-rings-the-alarm-for-new-podcast-looking-for-big-buyers/ | 2022-08-13T17:12:37Z | https://allhiphop.com/news/ray-j-rings-the-alarm-for-new-podcast-looking-for-big-buyers/ | true | 1 |

US obtains warrant to seize $90M jet of Russian oligarch
NEW YORK (AP) — A judge authorized the United States on Monday to seize a $90 million jet belonging to a Russian oligarch in a continuing effort to diminish the financial pillars of the Russian government after its invasion of Ukraine.
The effort to seize Andrei Skoch’s private plane, an Airbus A319-100, was part of a monthslong pursuit of sanctioned Russian oligarchs and their blocked property, U.S. Attorney Damian Williams announced.
Skoch, a steel magnate, is one of the wealthiest men in Russia’s Duma, or parliament. His fortune is valued at about $6.6 billion, according to Forbes. The U.S. Treasury first sanctioned Skoch in April 2018 over his ties to organized crime and for being “a deputy of the Russian Federation’s State Duma.”
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control issued additional sanctions against Skoch and his assets, including by identifying the Airbus in June as property in which Skoch had an interest, according to a release from law enforcement authorities.
The warrant to seize the plane, which is now in Kazakhstan, was signed by U.S. District Judge Robert W. Lehrburger in New York after a federal agent submitted an affidavit explaining how Skoch is the owner of the Airbus through a series of shell companies and trusts tied to his romantic partner. Authorities said the jet is worth more than $90 million.
“Once again U.S. law enforcement has demonstrated that international shell games will not suffice to hide the fruits of corruption and money laundering,” said Andrew C. Adams, director of a task force pursing the assets of Russian oligarchs.
The United States had already revealed it was seeking to seize a $156 million superyacht, the Madame Gu, belonging to Skoch. The 324-foot (98-meter) yacht has a helicopter pad, gym, beach club and elevator.
In June, Treasury issued additional sanctions against Skoch and his assets, banning American entities from conducting business with the superyacht. The yacht is registered in the Cayman Islands but has most recently been docked at Port Rashid in Dubai. Skoch is also sanctioned by the European Union.
The United Arab Emirates has not taken sides after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and has welcomed the influx of Russian money to its beachfront villas and luxury hotels. The UAE has become a safe haven for some Russian oligarchs to park their assets.
In June, a U.S. court ordered the seizure of two aircraft worth over $400 million believed to be owned by sanctioned Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich. A court filing said that the former Chelsea soccer club owner’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner was in the UAE. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2697810051852/us-obtains-warrant-to-seize-90m-jet-of-russian-oligarch | 2022-08-13T17:28:45Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2697810051852/us-obtains-warrant-to-seize-90m-jet-of-russian-oligarch | true | 41 |
Calls have been made for transparency in relation to the police investigation into the death of schoolboy Noah Donohoe at a protest held by the child’s family at Belfast City Hall.
Sinn Féin MP for North Belfast John Finucane said that Noah’s mother’s “fight for the answers she deserves” is supported by many, and MLA Gerry Carroll claimed that the case had been “mishandled”.
There appeared to be well in excess of 1,000 people at the protest when it officially began at 1pm.
Carrying signs and banners calling for “Justice for Noah”, people chanted “no PII” and “Tell the truth”.
Some wore blue-and-white striped GAA-style jerseys with the number 14 on the back, Noah’s age when he died.
Noah, a pupil at St Malachy’s College in Belfast, was found dead in a storm drain in north Belfast in June 2020, six days after he went missing.
His mother, Fiona Donohoe, hopes to find answers to some of the questions surrounding Noah’s death through the inquest process, and has called for police files relating to the investigation to be released in full.
Fiona Donohoe spoke briefly at the end of the protest to thank supporters for attending.
Sinn Féin MP for North Belfast John Finucane told protesters: “I never had the pleasure of meeting Noah but, since his death, it’s hard not to feel that we have all got to know something about this incredibly special boy who lived in Belfast.
“A good student, a good friend, a basketball fan, and someone who had their whole life ahead of them.
“Like any parent, like every parent, we all have unconditional love for our children, and we all want our children to be safe, and to be happy.
“That Noah’s image is now so recognisable, that we all have a sense of who he was and what he loved doing is a painful testament to the love of a mother who is now left fighting for truth and justice, fighting to find out what happened to her son.
“Because that is why we are gathered here today, just as we have all gathered on so many occasions, too many occasions, since Noah’s disappearance in June 2020.
“We gather to show that Fiona and her family do not stand alone. That when she fights for the answers she deserves through our legal system, she knows and everyone knows that there are so many who stand with her and support her.”
Addressing the crowd, People Before Profit MLA Gerry Carroll called on Policing Board members to sever ties with the PSNI over how Noah’s case has been “mishandled”.
“There should be no backroom discussions with the PSNI until the PII is scrapped and there is a proper, transparent attempt to get justice for Noah Donohoe,” he told the protest.
“If there are members of the Policing Board here today, then I would call on them and their colleagues to resign from that board.
“Severing that link with the PSNI would send a strong message to this campaign and to the Donohoe family that you will not be associated with a process which attempts to withhold information from a mother about the death of her son.”
The event finished with a minute’s silence and the release of doves.
The demonstration comes after Northern Ireland Secretary of State Shailesh Vara signed off on a request by the PSNI for public interest immunity (PII) in relation to three police files that are to be used during the inquest into the child’s death.
The application to redact sensitive materials, being made by the PSNI through the PII process, needs to be supported by a certificate signed by the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland or another Northern Ireland Office minister.
It emerged at the end of July that Mr Vara had signed the PII certificate, which was met with criticism by the Donohoe family.
The law firm representing the Donohoe family expressed “grave concerns” over Mr Vara’s actions, claiming that the move appeared to “exacerbate rather than allay deeply held concerns”.
Northern Ireland first minister designate and Sinn Féin Stormont leader Michelle O’Neill said Mr Vara’s decision was “totally unacceptable”, and that the use of a PII in Noah’s case was “wholly inappropriate”.
She called on the PII application to be withdrawn.
The decision on whether to approve the application now rests with the coroner in the inquest, Joe McCrisken.
The inquest into Noah’s death is scheduled to begin on November 28 and to run for three weeks.

Anne Heche is on life support after suffering a brain injury in a fiery crash a week ago and her survival isn’t expected, according to a statement from a representative.
The actor, who is in a coma and in critical condition, is being kept on life support for possible organ donation, according to the statement released Thursday night on behalf of her family and friends.
Heche, who’s been hospitalized at the Grossman Burn Center at West Hills hospital north of Los Angeles, suffered a “severe anoxic brain injury,” the statement said. Such an injury is caused by a sustained lack of oxygen to the brain.
“She is not expected to survive,” the statement said. “It has long been her choice to donate her organs and she is being kept on life support to determine if any are viable.”
On the morning of Aug. 5, Heche’s car smashed into a house in a neighborhood in west Los Angeles and a fire erupted with the car embedded inside the home.
Earlier Thursday, police said they were investigating Heche for driving under the influence. Detectives with a search warrant took a sample of her blood and found narcotics in her system, LAPD spokesperson Officer Jeff Lee said.
Toxicology tests, which can take weeks to complete, must be performed to identify the drugs more clearly and to differentiate them from any medication she may have been given for treatment at the hospital.
Evidence is still being gathered from the crash, police said, and they would present a case to prosecutors if it is warranted when the investigation is complete.
A representative for Heche declined comment on the investigation.
On Tuesday, Heche spokesperson Heather Duffy Boylston said she had been in a coma since after the accident, with burns that required surgery and lung injuries that required the use of a ventilator to breathe.
“Anne had a huge heart and touched everyone she met with her generous spirit. More than her extraordinary talent, she saw spreading kindness and joy as her life’s work — especially moving the needle for acceptance of who you love,” Thursday’s statement said. “She will be remembered for her courageous honesty and dearly missed for her light.”
Heche, 53, was among the most prominent film stars in Hollywood in the late 1990s, playing opposite actors including Johnny Depp (“Donnie Brasco”) and Harrison Ford (“Six Days, Seven Nights”). In a 2001 memoir, she discussed her lifelong struggles with mental health.
She recently had recurring roles on the network TV series “Chicago P.D.” and “All Rise,” and in 2020 was a contestant on “Dancing With the Stars.”

San Diego Padres dynamo Fernando Tatis Jr., one of the brightest, freshest stars in all of Major League Baseball, was suspended 80 games on Friday after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance and won’t play this season.
MLB said Tatis tested positive for Clostebol, an anabolic steroid. Tatis said he accidentally took a medication to treat ringworm that contained the banned substance.
The penalty imposed by MLB was effective immediately, meaning the All-Star shortstop — who had been out the entire season because of a broken wrist but was expected to return to the playoff contenders next week — cannot play in the majors until next year.
Tatis will miss the remaining 48 regular-season games this year. Any postseason games the Padres play would count toward the 80 that Tatis must sit out, and he’ll serve the rest of the suspension at the start of next season.
“Shocked everybody,” Padres star Manny Machado said after a 10-5 win over Washington.
The 23-year-old Tatis, who signed a $340 million, 14-year contract before the 2021 season, became one of the most prominent players ever penalized for performance-enhancing drugs, along with Alex Rodriguez and Manny Ramirez. The penalty will cost Tatis about $2.9 million.
MLB said the suspension also will prevent Tatis from playing for the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic next March.
“Obviously, everybody’s very disappointed. Somebody that from the organization’s standpoint we invested time and money into,” Padres general manager A.J. Preller said at Nationals Park, where San Diego played Washington.
Flashy at the plate and in the field, Tatis was an All-Star last season when he led the National League with 42 home runs. He was set to soon rejoin the Padres to boost a lineup that added star outfielder Juan Soto this month right before the trade deadline.
In a statement released by the players’ union, Tatis said he was “completely devastated” and apologized to Padres management, his teammates, MLB and “and fans everywhere for my mistake.”
“It turns out that I inadvertently took a medication to treat ringworm that contained Clostebol,” he said. “I should have used the resources available to me in order to ensure that no banned substances were in what I took. I failed to do so.”
“I have no excuse for my error, and I would never do anything to cheat or disrespect this game I love,” he said.
Tatis added that “after initially appealing the suspension, I have realized that my mistake was the cause of this result, and for that reason I have decided to start serving my suspension immediately. I look forward to rejoining my teammates on the field in 2023.”
Freddy Galvis and Dee Strange-Gordon are among the major leaguers previously suspended for using Clostebol, which can be used for ophthalmological and dermatological use. It is also banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency, and Olympic gold medal winning cross-country skier Therese Johaug was suspended in 2016 after testing positive for it.
Tatis was seventh player suspended this year under the major league drug program. Thirty-three have been suspended under the minor league drug program.
Players who test positive for PEDs are ineligible for the postseason that year.
Preller said he found out about the suspension late Friday afternoon. He said he hadn’t spoken yet to Tatis, but had seen his player’s statement.
“Again, that’s his story. I haven’t had a chance to talk to him about it yet. Ultimately that’s his explanation,” Preller said. “I think the biggest thing just from our standpoint, from a baseball standpoint, there’s a drug policy in place. He failed a drug screen. For whatever reason.”
“Ultimately, he’s suspended and can’t play. That’s the biggest thing. That’s a player’s responsibility to make sure he’s within compliance of that. He wasn’t. Ultimately supportive of that and want to make sure he understands that,” he said.
The son of a former big leaguer, Tatis made his MLB debut in 2019 and quickly became a smash hit on the field and with the fans. He has a career .965 OPS and has played shortstop and in the outfield.
Tatis became one of the biggest MLB players suspended for PEDs since testing with penalties started in 2004, joining Rodriguez (2014 season), Ramirez (50 games in 2009 and 100 games in 2011), Robinson Canó (80 games in 2018 and 2020 season) and Miguel Tejada (105 games in 2013).
Tatis had been on the injured list this season after breaking his left wrist — the accident is believed to have been in December in a motorcycle accident in the Domincan Republic. He had surgery in mid-March.
“I think we’re hoping that from the offseason to now there would be some maturity. Obviously with the news today it’s more of a pattern and something we’ve got to dig a little more into,” Preller said.
“I’m sure he’s very disappointed. At the end of the day, it’s one thing to say. You’ve got to start showing it with your actions,” he said.
Preller added: “I think what we need to get to is a point in time we trust (him). Over the course of the last six or seven months, that’s been something that we haven’t been really able to have there.”
“I think from our standpoint, obviously he’s a great talent, he’s a guy we have a lot of history with and do believe in, but these things only work when there’s trust both ways.”
On Aug. 6, Tatis began a minor rehabilitation assignment with Double-A San Antonio. He was 2 for 9 with a double and a triple in four games.
The Padres traded for Soto in hopes of making a run deep into October. They figured a roster that included Soto, Tatis and Machado could give them a better chance at the first World Series championship in team history — now, they’ll have to make that try without one of those key pieces.
“Hearing that he’s going to get suspended for 80 games and not be a part of what we’re trying to accomplish here is something you don’t want to hear before a game and don’t want to hear overall. It’s just a terrible thing,” Machado said.
“We were waiting to get him back and for him to be a sparkplug,” he said.
Added manager Bob Melvin: “This is a blow for us. … I’m glad we made the moves we did over the deadline.”
Tatis won’t be able to play in the WBC early next year. Dominican fans had been salivating at the prospect of seeing a bruising lineup that included Tatis, Soto, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Rafael Devers and José Ramírez.
Tatis will forfeit $1,510,989 of his $5 million salary this year, covering the final 55 days and 48 games of the season. He will lose approximately $1.39 million of his $7 million salary for the first 32 games of next season, with the exact number to be determined by how many days he misses.
“There is nowhere else in the world I would rather be than on the field competing with my teammates,” Tatis said.
“I have taken countless drug tests throughout my professional career, including on March 29, 2022, all of which have returned negative results until this test,” he said.
The penalty was announced shortly before the Padres played Washington. San Diego began the day at 63-51 and holding the final of the three NL wild-card spots.
Preller said the team had about 15 minutes to talk about Tatis’ suspension before taking the field.
“We haven’t had (Tatis) for this season, so it’s not like we’ve had him in the lineup and now we won’t,” Preller said. “I think to a man all the guys in that clubhouse believe we can win. They know we can win. Never been about one player.”

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — A major economic bill headed to the president has “game-changing” incentives for the nuclear energy industry, experts say, and those tax credits are even more substantial if a facility is sited in a community where a coal plant is closing.
The transformative bill provides the most spending to fight climate change by any one nation ever in a single push. Among the many things it could do nuclear energy experts say is spur more projects like one Bill Gates is planning in Kemmerer, Wyoming. Gates’ company, TerraPower, plans to build an advanced, nontraditional nuclear reactor and employ workers from a local coal-fired power plant scheduled to close soon.
Companies designing and building the next generation of nuclear reactors could pick one of two new tax credits available to carbon-free electricity generators, such as wind and solar. To ensure coal communities have a place in the energy transition, both tax credits include a 10-percentage point bonus for facilities sited where residents have relied on fossil fuel plants or mining— a “sizeable incentive” to locate them there, according to Matt Crozat, senior director for strategy and policy development at the Nuclear Energy Institute.
That could include towns in coal-dependent West Virginia, since the state eliminated a ban on nuclear power plants this year. Or in Maryland, where the state announced a partnership in June to look at repurposing a fossil fuel site for a small nuclear reactor. Or in Montana, where lawmakers are looking at advanced nuclear reactors as a possible replacement for coal boilers.
Staffan Qvist, an expert in energy systems analysis and decarbonization strategies, has extensively researched the feasibility of replacing coal plants with emissions-free alternatives in China and Poland. He found that coal plants often make ideal sites for advanced, high-temperature nuclear reactors.
“It’s a growing trend,” Qvist said, “now it’s being talked about everywhere.” Qvist is also founder of Qvist Consulting Limited in the United Kingdom. “You have a site, you have a grid connection. You have equipment that can remain in use, and you have a workforce that could be retrained.”
A design by NuScale Power is the first to be fully certified in the United States and the company is planning to begin operating a small modular reactor in 2029 at the Idaho National Laboratory. The company’s chief financial officer, Chris Colbert, said former coal plants are ideal locations for advanced nuclear technology, in part because transmission lines are already in place.
Colbert also said he thinks potential customers will be more interested in the company’s small advanced reactors because of the incentives in the bill.
There are nearly $375 billion in climate incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act. Among them, there’s a new tax credit available to any carbon-free electricity generator. That includes new advanced nuclear reactors that begin construction in 2025 or later. Existing nuclear plants that expand their output could get credit for that additional electricity production. The credit is worth at least $25 per megawatt-hour for the first decade the plant operates, according to NEI, the industry’s trade association.
Or, owners of a new carbon-free electricity generator could take advantage of an investment tax credit, worth 30% of the amount they paid to build the facility.
The bill also has $700 million to produce the uranium fuel in the United States that many advanced reactors need. And there’s a tax credit for existing nuclear plants worth up to $15 per megawatt hour from 2024 to 2032. That’s enough of a boost that it’s highly likely no nuclear plants will close during that period for economic reasons, Crozat said. There are expanded options for how the credit can be used, with direct payments for certain owners, such as municipal utilities.
The incentives are a game changer for the nuclear energy industry, said Jacopo Buongiorno, professor of nuclear science and engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Buongiorno has studied the future of nuclear energy in a carbon-constrained world.
“This is really substantial,” he said as he read the list of tax credits. “This should move the needle in terms of making these technologies economically viable right off the bat.”
Buongiorno liked that the credits are available to many carbon-free technologies.
“It’s not just nuclear, it’s not just solar, it’s all of the above, which is what we have been preaching as the right approach for decarbonization,” he said. “You need to sort of push everybody here.”
But Grant Smith, a senior energy policy adviser at the Environmental Working Group, said tax credits for small modular nuclear units is a waste of taxpayer dollars. They divert resources from commercially-viable emerging technologies, Smith said, and stokes “the continuing false narrative of cheap, easily-deployed nuclear technology that the sector has been spinning for decades.” Smith leads the nonprofit’s work on accelerating the transition to renewables.
Georgia has the only nuclear project currently under construction in the U.S. Two traditional large reactors were projected to cost $14 billion and are now expected to cost more than $30 billion.
Because of that, Buongiorno said he’d be shocked if there is another order for a traditional large reactor in the U.S. The perception of financial risk, or project risk overall, would be too high, he said.
There are roughly 40 serious concepts in development for the next generation of advanced nuclear reactors worldwide, Qvist said. China was the first to connect one of the next generation of reactors to its grid to produce about 200 megawatts of electricity. A high-temperature, gas-cooled reactor began operating last year.
Kairos Power has applied for a permit to construct a test reactor in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. GE Hitachi is working on a reactor in Ontario, Canada, and if it’s successful, there’s a lot of interest in it in the United States, Poland and elsewhere in Europe, Qvist said.
The largest public power company in the U.S., the Tennessee Valley Authority, launched a program this year to develop and fund new small modular nuclear reactors as part of its strategy to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The TVA is focused on GE Hitachi’s design.
At least a dozen advanced reactors are projected to come online in the 2020s.
“It’s not far off and it’s not speculative and it’s not on paper,” Qvist said. “There are actually a lot of things really happening.”

Feds Who Raided Mar-a-Lago Are Under Investigation by John Durham . . . for Russiagate Hoax
August 13, 2022 | Tags: LIBERTY DAILY
With every layer of the FBI corruption that gets peeled back, the whole thing smells worse and worse. The latest report reveals that those who raided Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home should have been recused because of connections to and an investigation regarding past malfeasance.
According to investigative journalist Paul Sperry:
“Sources say the FBI agents and officials who were involved in the raid on former President Trump’s home work in the same CounterIntelligence Division of the FBI that investigated Trump in the Russiagate hoax and are actively under criminal investigation by Special Counsel John Durham for potentially abusing their power investigating Trump in the Russian fraud and therefore have a potential conflict of interest and should have been RECUSED from participating in this supposed “espionage” investigation at Mar-a-Lago.”
It’s a long sentence, so let’s break it down. According to Sperry’s sources, some or all of those who raided Mar-a-Lago were also involved in the Russiagate scandal. They are currently under investigation by John Durham for possible crimes. They should have been recused from the raid altogether.
Knowing this, why would they be the ones involved? Certainly the FBI is aware that the agents and officials are under investigation regarding their handling of past hoaxes against Donald Trump. Is there something special about this particular unit? Are they the FBI’s “go-to bagmen” who do the dirty work for the Deep State?
It’s actually potentially worse than that. According to Kellyanne Richardson from Defiant America:
Kash Patel, a former Federal Prosecutor and Department of Defense official under former President Donald Trump, has revealed a key flaw in the Biden Department of Justice’s claims following the FBI raid on Trump’s estate at Mar-a-Lago.
Patel explained that reports of classified materials found at the Palm Beach property are misleading because the documents were already declassified. “Trump declassified whole sets of materials in anticipation of leaving government that he thought the American public should have the right to read themselves,”
But it seems that team Trump has more information! The left was coming after President Donald Trump, daring him to release the warrant regarding the FBI raid on his home.
Trump isn’t blinking. He’s not acting like someone who thinks he has a lot to fear from this. He announced he was all for releasing the warrant, and he now he’s commented on how the raid was completely unnecessary. He had been in talks with the National Archives for a while and had already turned over several boxes of documents in June. So that’s why the raid isn’t making logical sense.
We’ll be monitoring this whole situation very closely. It’s not uncommon for America First patriots to jump the gun and report great news that may or may not be properly sourced. Then again, it’s equally common for the clowns in Washington DC to let their ego and thirst for power get the better of them, especially when they succumb to Trump Derangement Syndrome. Either this is premature journalism or a case of total idiocy by the Deep State.

Analysis: Southampton 2-2 Leeds
- Published
Mantej Mann, BBC Sport
Southampton began the game like a side that were bereft of confidence after being well-beaten in their opening game at Tottenham last weekend.
They only had 38% possession in the first half as they failed to operate against the Leeds press in the sweltering heat.
Ralph Hasenhuttl is reportedly under pressure to keep his job but his second-half substitutions changed the game as Sekou Mara impressed on debut.
One point from the first two games of the season will not be celebrated on the south coast but the point ends a run of five Premier League defeats and shows Hasenhuttl still has the backing of at least some of his players. | https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/cp0q6v1e22eo | 2022-08-13T17:44:54Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/cp0q6v1e22eo | true | null |

Brentford fans twisted the knife on Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag with some good old fashioned "sacked in the morning" chants.
The Dutchman looked shell-shocked as he watched his United side ship four awful goals in a stunning first half at the GTech Community Stadium. The tone of the evening was set when Josh Dasilva's tame effort squirmed embarrassingly through David De Gea’s gloves, before a horrific pass from the Spanish goalkeeper led to Mathias Jensen barging Christian Eriksen off the ball and slotting past him.
United were let off the hook for 10 minutes, until Ben Mee bundled in from close range at the back post, before Bryan Mbuemo completed a wonderful counterattack to slot in a fourth. And the Brentford fans were far from sympathetic to the United chief.

"Sacked in the morning" rang around the stadium as Ten Hag helplessly watched his team's decimation. All eyes will be on Ten Hag after the catastrophic first half display.
United fans were hopeful of a significantly improved season when Ten Hag walked through the doors. A promising pre-season only raised optimism around the United fan-base.
However, it would be fair to say any confidence of an improvement on last season’s sour campaign has been thoroughly quashed. Ten Hag started Ronaldo ahead of the Bees but even he could not drag this United side into winning contention.
Is Ten Hag already in danger of getting the sack? Let us know in the comments section below
The Portuguese ace's future has dominated the discourse around the club. And those rumours will not decrease as the Portuguese, unsurprisingly, cut a very frustrated and isolated figure up front for United.
Something will have to give if Ten Hag is to steer this United side into the top four. But one thing is for certain, this is going to be a very tough task for the United manager.

BERLIN (AP) — German businesses and public institutions should heat their offices no higher than 19 degrees Celsius (66.2 degrees Fahrenheit) this winter to help reduce the country's consumption of natural gas, Germany’s economy minister said Saturday.
Germany, the European Union's biggest economy, is quickly trying to wean itself off using natural gas from Russia in response to Moscow's attack on Ukraine. However Germany uses more Russian gas imports than many other EU nations. Russia has already cut off gas exports to several EU nations, and officials fear Moscow will use the gas exports as a political weapon to get sanctions against Russia reduced — or even cut the exports to Europe off altogether in the winter, when demand is the highest.
Economy Minister Robert Habeck said while the EU's 27 countries have pledged to cut their gas use by 15% from August compared to the previous five-year average, Germany needs to reduce its consumption by 20%.
Habeck is also proposing banning the heating of non-commercial private pools; switching off heating in common areas of public buildings, such as foyers; and switching off the lights on public billboards between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.

BANGKOK — The Chinese air force is sending fighter jets and bombers to Thailand for a joint exercise with the Thai military on Sunday.
The training will include air support, strikes on ground targets and small- and large-scale troop deployment, the Chinese Defense Ministry said in a statement posted on its website.
China's expanding military activities in the Asia-Pacific region have alarmed the United States and its allies and form part of a growing strategic and economic competition that has inflamed tensions between the world's two largest economies.
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin visited Thailand in June as part of an effort to strengthen what he called America's "unparalleled network of alliances and partnerships" in the region.
The Falcon Strike exercise will be held at the Udorn Royal Thai Air Force Base in northern Thailand near the border with Laos. Thai fighter jets and airborne early warning aircraft from both countries will also take part.
The training comes as the U.S. holds combat drills in Indonesia with Indonesia, Australia, Japan and Singapore in the largest iteration of the Super Garuda Shield exercises since they began in 2009.
It also follows China's sending warships, missiles and aircraft into the waters and air around Taiwan in a threatening response to a visit by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the self-ruled island, which China claims as its territory.
Kurt Campbell, a top advisor to President Joe Biden on the Indo-Pacific, said Friday that the U.S. would take resolute steps to support Taiwan, including sending warships and aircraft through the 160-kilometer (100-mile) wide waterway that separates Taiwan and China.
"We'll continue to fly, sail and operate where international law allows, consistent with our longstanding commitment to freedom of navigation," he said in a call with reporters. "And that includes conducting standard air and maritime transits through the Taiwan Strait in the next few weeks."

Japan, Japan, Tue, 04 Jan 2022 06:48:29 / Comserve Inc. / -- Graphene has unique properties for application in batteries and supercapacitors, including high specific surface area (2630 m2/g), good chemical stability and excellent electrical conductivity.
A more recent version of this publication is available
With global energy demands ever increasing, allied to efforts to reduce the use of fossil fuel and eliminate air pollutions, it is now essential to provide efficient, cost-effective, and environmental friendly energy storage devices. The growing market for smart grit networks, electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) is also driving the market for improving the energy density of rechargeable batteries.
Rechargeable battery technologies (such as Li-ion, Li-S, Na-ion, Li-O2 batteries) and supercapacitors are among the most promising power storage and supply systems in terms of their wide spread applicability, and tremendous potential owing to their high energy and power densities. LIBs are currently the dominant mobile power sources for portable electronic devices used in cell phones and laptops.

Although great advances have been made, each type of battery still suffers from problems that seriously hinder the practical applications for example in commercial EVs and PHEVs. The performance of these devices is inherently tied to the properties of materials used to build them.
With renewable energy sources at peak interest in the scientific research community, technologies for storing high amounts of electric charge and energy are much sought after. Electric vehicles, and enabling lithium-battery (LIB) technology, will become a progressively larger market-with estimates of CAGR of over 20% through to 2025.
Due to intrinsic properties such as high surface area and high conductivity, graphene and 2D materials nanocomposite hybrids are regarded as excellent candidates to improve the performance of electrode materials in energy storage/conversion devices (e.g., Li ion batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, and solar cells).
Graphene has unique properties for application in batteries and supercapacitors, including high specific surface area (2630 m2/g), good chemical stability and excellent electrical conductivity. These properties make graphene to be an excellent candidate as a catalyst support for energy conversion and storage applications. It is the most widely studied advanced material for energy storage. Graphene nanoplatelets can increase the effectiveness of lithium-ion batteries when used to formulate electrodes, yielding vastly shorter recharge times.
Applications under commercial development include ultra-small capacitors, flexible and stretchable energy-storage devices, transparent batteries, and high- capacity and fast-charging devices.
A number of companies are developing energy storage applications for graphene, where it could potentially replace the graphite electrodes found in batteries, supercapacitors and fuel cells. Most activity at present is utilizing graphene as a conductive additive for lithium-ion batteries (LIB) and supercapacitors.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas’ elections director says the state will go along with a request for a hand recount of votes from every county after last week’s decisive statewide vote affirming abortion rights, even though there was a 165,000-vote difference and a recount won’t change the result.
Melissa Leavitt, of Colby in far western Kansas, requested the recount and declined to comment to reporters Friday evening, citing work obligations. But she said on an online site raising funds for a recount that she had “seen data” about the election. Her post was not more specific, and there is no evidence of significant problems with the election.
Baseless election conspiracies have circulated widely in the U.S., particularly among supporters of former President Donald Trump, who has repeated false claims that he lost the 2020 election through fraud.
Kansas law requires Leavitt to post a bond to cover the entire cost of the recount. Bryan Caskey, state elections director for the Kansas secretary of state’s office, said it would be the first recount of the votes on a statewide ballot question in at least 30 years.
Caskey said the work won’t begin without a guarantee that Leavitt can cover the cost.
“Normally, they reinforce the Election Day results,” Caskey said about recounts. “We stand by the results and will do the recount.”
Also seeking a recount is state Sen. Caryn Tyson, who is trailing state Rep. Steven Johnson in the Republican primary for state treasurer by about 400 votes out of nearly 434,000 cast. She is asking for a hand recount in about half the state’s 105 counties.
Voters last week rejected a proposed amendment to the Kansas Constitution that would have allowed the conservative, Republican-controlled Legislature to further restrict or ban abortion. It failed by 18 percentage points.

A Chilliwack man whose illegal pet pig died in 2021 after it had to be re-homed due to a bylaw violation has started a petition called Hamson’s Law.
The goal is to change a Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) bylaw to allow people to have pigs as pets in Chilliwack and beyond, Eli Gagne said.
He and his family had a pig named Hamson on their property in Chilliwack for about a year and a half, from December 2019 to August 2021. He was just 12 weeks old when they got him.
Gagne got a call from animal control with the FVRD on Aug. 5, 2021 after a neighbour made a complaint about the 70-pound miniature pot-bellied pig in Gagne’s backyard.
According to the FVRD bylaw, livestock are not allowed as pets within a residence or on real property.
Details of the complaint were not revealed to Gagne and he was given a week to re-home Hamson, or face a fine of $100 per day.
The family was forced to find a new home for Hamson, so they relocated him to a hobby farm in Kelowna on Aug. 8, 2021.
Four hours after arriving at his new home, Hamson died.

“It’s bad enough to have to be re-homed, but then passing away because of stress and anxiety,” Gagne said during an interview with The Chilliwack Progress in 2021.
He died because of the move, Gagne said, adding he couldn’t find a local farm that would take Hamson.
“No farm in the area would take him because he’s not considered livestock by their standards,” Gagne said.
He said there’s a “grey area” in the bylaw and FVRD should make a distinction between a pig in a residential area that is a pet and one that is livestock.
He has now started a petition to amend Bylaw No. 1206 to allow for the keeping of one, two or three pigs – classified as livestock as pets – on private property.
It’s called ‘Hamson’s Law – A petition to allow for pigs to be kept as pets.’
“Understanding there are reasons why pigs are not to be kept on ‘real property’ it is possible to do so in a manner that minimizes these issues,” the online petition reads.
Gagne said Hamson was cared for like a family dog and he and his family loved him like a pet.
“The issues of keeping livestock on real property, such as noise issues and manure disposal can be rectified by an individual if they have the mind to do so – as the Gagnes did, and as any reasonable adult should be able to do,” the petition states. “It is also not the regional district’s business which animal a family chooses to love, if that family does so in a responsible manner.”

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukraine’s health minister has accused Russian authorities of committing a crime against humanity by blocking access to affordable medicines in areas its forces have occupied since invading the country 5 1/2 months ago.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Ukrainian Health Minister Viktor Liashko said Russian authorities repeatedly have blocked efforts to provide state-subsidized drugs to people in occupied cities, towns and villages.
“Throughout the entire six months of war, Russia has not (allowed) proper humanitarian corridors so we could provide our own medicines to the patients that need them,” Liashko said, speaking at the Health Ministry in Kyiv late Friday.
“We believe that these actions are being taken with intent by Russia, and we consider them to be crimes against humanity and war crimes that will be documented and will be recognized,” the minister said.
The Ukrainian government has a program that provides medications to people with cancer and chronic health conditions. The destruction of hospitals and infrastructure along with the displacement of an estimated 7 million people inside the country also have interfered with other forms of treatment, according to United Nations and Ukrainian officials.
The war in Ukraine has caused severe disruptions to the country’s state-run health service, which was undergoing major reforms, largely in response to the coronavirus pandemic, when Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his troops to invade on Feb. 24.
The World Health Organization said it recorded 445 attacks on hospitals and other health care facilities as of Aug. 11 that directly resulted in 86 deaths and 105 injuries.
But Liashko said the secondary effects were far more severe.
“When roads and bridges have been damaged in areas now controlled by the Ukrainian forces… it is difficult to get someone who had a heart attack or a stroke to the hospital,” he said. “Sometimes, we can’t make it in time, the ambulance can’t get there in time. That’s why war causes many more casualties (than those killed in the fighting). It’s a number that cannot be calculated.” ___ Full coverage of the war in Ukraine: https://apnews.com/hub/russia-ukraine ___ Follow Gatopoulos at https://twitter.com/dgatopoulos and Arhirova at https://twitter.com/h_arhirova | https://www.ktsm.com/news/health-news/ap-health/ukrainian-minister-says-russia-blocking-access-to-medicines/ | 2022-08-13T18:40:42Z | https://www.ktsm.com/news/health-news/ap-health/ukrainian-minister-says-russia-blocking-access-to-medicines/ | false | 27 |

Dynamic Pageant Unveils Reality Show for Nigerian Models
Dynamic Pageant Reality Show has unveiled the first reality TV show for models in Nigeria entitled, ‘Dynamic Pageant Reality Show’ with N10 million and car prizes.
Addressing pressmen at the Cubana club, Ikeja Lagos, the organisers stated that the show aims to change the face of modelling in Nigeria.
This is to boost the strength, worth and quality of the upcoming models, moulding them into models beyond the pageantry and giving them exposure beyond the shores of the nation.
The Executive Producer, Mr Thierry Nzue said: “Some years ago, I started a modelling company in Manchester, Dynamic City Models, which is the brainchild of this show. I found out that in the West there is a void of African models in Europe.
“Not that they don’t exist but their presence is quite a few in the modelling industry over there, especially in the UK” after he found out that there was no platform that encouraged Africans to become models.
Nzue expressed: “So I did some research on how we can help fill this void. We decided that we should create a reality show that the individuals will have to protect themselves, their strength, their worth, and their quality.”
Hence, he described the unveiling as a new beginning while highlighting that there is life after the show. “That is what we are interested in, not the pageantry itself.”
The executive producer noted that the show is not pageantry alone; it’s pageantry that will model participants into a model.
“It is not just looking for that individual to do the catwalk, but moulding somebody to become a professional model which you or that individual will propagate beyond Nigeria’s shores,” says Nzue.
According to the Project Manager, Anthony Adeola, the winner of the show will go home with N10 million with a brand new car. “And we have signed up contracts with Dynamic City Models in Manchester.”
Senator Florence Ita Giwa is the matron on this project. “This is about the viewer’s vote and the public vote.” | https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/08/12/dynamic-pageant-unveils-reality-show-for-nigerian-models/ | 2022-08-13T18:42:04Z | https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/08/12/dynamic-pageant-unveils-reality-show-for-nigerian-models/ | true | 1 |

SALEM, Ore. (AP) — The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued two “event notifications” for incidents involving Salem Hospital’s radiation oncology department earlier this year.
One incident involved hospital employees, while the other involved patients. Investigations to-date have shown no injuries, the Statesman Journal reported.
Salem Health voluntarily reported both incidents, hospital spokesperson Lisa Wood said. Both involved a cancer therapy device called high dose-rate afterloader, or HDR, said Erica Heartquist, a spokesperson for the Oregon Health Authority, which is investigating the incidents.
The agency’s Radiation Protection Services licenses and monitors radioactive materials in the state. OHA was unable to provide further information because the events are still are under investigation, Heartquist said.
“These kinds of events are rare,” she said.
On March 22, a sealed source of Iridium-192 was delivered by common carrier to the wrong floor of the hospital, according to the NRC’s notification document. The part is used in the HDR device.
Instead of being delivered to radiation oncology, it was delivered to a medical practice that rents space in the building.
“The person receiving the package, who does not have radiation safety or transportation training, signed for it without an understanding or what it was and placed it on the floor of an access-controlled staff working area,” the notification reads.
Salem Health did not realize the package had been delivered until March 28, when medical supplier Varian called to schedule installation of the part, which is delivered quarterly.
“There was no indication given of tracking a replacement source package while it is in transit to the licensee’s site. This is being investigated further,” the NRC notification reads.
“Salem Health was initially unaware of the shipment delivery and that it had been misdirected,” Wood said. “Upon discovering the location of the shipment, Salem Health retrieved the shipment and transferred to its secure location.”
Salem Heath performed radiation dose measurements on and near the source package at various distances and orientations with a survey meter.
“It is determined that there was no harm to patients or staff from this source delivery issue,” Wood said.
On June 29, radiation oncology staff identified a deviation in the length of a transfer tube used to deliver radiation.
“The tube was found to be 2.9 centimeters longer than the vendor’s specifications,” the NRC notification reads.
“Treatments therefore will be 2.9 centimeters shorter than the programmed distance for treatments and involving 1.5-2 centimeters of unintended tissue…” it continues.
The transfer tube had last been measured on July 27, 2020. Salem Health believes they may have underdosed some patients, according to the NRC notification.
The hospital has identified two treatments where this may be the case and is putting together a list of all cases since the last tube measurement in 2020, the notification says. | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/2-radiation-incidents-investigated-at-Salem-Health-17371607.php | 2022-08-13T18:48:29Z | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/2-radiation-incidents-investigated-at-Salem-Health-17371607.php | true | 12 |
Nigeria midfielder Joe Aribo came off the bench to score his debut Premier League goal as Southampton came from two goals down to force a 2-2 draw with Leeds United at St Mary’s Stadium on Saturday.
After a goalless first half, the Saints found themselves down when Spanish forward Rodrigo gave Leeds the lead just seconds after the restart before he completed his brace 14 minutes later.
That forced Southampton coach Ralph Hasenhuttl into three substitutions after 61 minutes as he took off Scottish midfielder Stuart Armstrong for Aribo, defender Jan Bednarek for French forward Sekou Mara while Adam Armstrong came in for Mohamed Elyounoussi.
Hasenhuttl then switched from 5-3-2 to a 4-3-3 formation with Aribo, Mara and Adam Armstrong offering a triple threat to the Leeds defence.
The changes nearly paid off one minute later when Aribo drew a great save from Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier. The former Rangers man rose highest to meet a cross and glanced a promising header from close range, but the goalkeeper pulled off a brilliant stop to keep it out.
The Super Eagles midfielder was not to be denied 10 minutes later, however, he showed great composure to pull one back for the Saints in the 72nd minute.
Adam Armstrong’s explosive pace down the left allowed him the space to cross and find Aribo, and the midfielder showed tremendous composure to round Meslier and find the bottom corner for his first Premier League goal.
Southampton kept pushing and their relentlessness yielded an unlikely comeback when Kyle Walker-Peters completed an unlikely comeback. Mara’s threaded through ball found Walker-Peters inside the box, and the full-back rifled his finish through Meslier to secure the Saints’ first point of the season.
Aribo, who joined Southampton from Rangers for £10m this summer, ended the game with two shots on target, one yielding a goal, and had 19 touches with a 70 percent pass completion rate in the 29 minutes he was on the pitch.
The Nigerian started Southampton’s opening match against Tottenham Hotspur and completed 90 minutes as they lost 4-1 last weekend but was dropped to bench for the visit of Leeds.
Meanwhile, Ghana defender Mohammed Salisu had a much-improved game from last week as he started his second straight match at the heart of the Saints defence.
Salisu, who scored an own goal last week, made four clearances and as many tackles while winning seven of his 14 ground and two aerial duels. He, however, lost possession 24 times while his four fouls earned him a yellow card. | https://www.goal.com/en-gh/news/aribo-scores-debut-premier-league-goal-in-southampton/blt34d87362b74729ef | 2022-08-13T18:49:15Z | https://www.goal.com/en-gh/news/aribo-scores-debut-premier-league-goal-in-southampton/blt34d87362b74729ef | false | 7 |

(The Hill) – Republicans are coming under fire for their rhetoric over $80 billion in funding for the IRS included a massive climate, tax and health care bill that Democrats in Congress are sending to the White House.
The funding, over 10 years, is intended to help the IRS enforce various provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act, which would raise more than $700 billion in new revenue by instituting a 15% corporate minimum tax, taxing stock buy backs and extending a cap on deductions for business losses, in addition to helping the IRS enforce existing tax law. Of the $80 billion, more than half would go to increased enforcement, like audits.
Republicans, who have nursed grievances over the IRS going back to the Obama administration that were inflamed further by fights over former President Trump’s tax returns, have taken aim at the funding, arguing it amounts to creating a new army of IRS agents to go after taxpayers.
But the IRS, Democrats and outside experts all say the new enforcement money will mostly allow the IRS to focus on audits of the wealthy.
“Contrary to the misinformation from opponents of this legislation, small business or households earning $400,000 per year or less will not see an increase in the chances that they are audited,” Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen wrote to IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig in a letter dated Aug. 11.
In an appearance on “Fox and Friends” this week, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) questioned whether the IRS was ready to send in armed units of agents into small Iowa businesses.
“Are they going to have a strike force that goes in with AK-15s already loaded, ready to shoot some small business person in Iowa with these, because I think they’re going after middle class and small business people, because they think that anybody that has pass-through income is a crook, and they aren’t paying their fair share, and we’re going to go after them,” he said.
In using the phrase “pass-through,” Grassley was referring to owners of certain types of companies, like partnerships and sole proprietorships, that allow for income to be reported on the tax returns of their owners. The Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act extends a limitation on the ability of pass-throughs to use losses to write off costs like salaries and interest. The limits were initially set up by the Trump administration’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
Democrats said that such views should be considered ridiculous.
“The incendiary conspiracy theories Republicans are pushing about armed IRS agents are increasingly dangerous and out of control,” Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) said in a statement.
“High-ranking Republicans, including the former chair of the Finance Committee, are saying shockingly irresponsible things,” he continued, seeming to refer to Grassley’s remarks. “It’s unbelievable that we even need to say this, but there are not going to be 87,000 armed IRS agents going door-to-door with assault weapons. This is funding for answering phone calls and upgrading computer systems. I would hope that House Republicans act responsibly today as the House considers the Inflation Reduction Act.”
Grassley’s office fired back at the statement from Wyden. A Grassley aide said in a statement to The Hill that “Democrats’ partisan bill includes an additional $80 billion to beef up IRS enforcement, including hiring an additional 87,000 IRS employees, which will undoubtedly result in more audits targeting American small businesses — at their expense. Unfortunately, Democrats’ focus is on IRS enforcement rather than providing badly needed tax services. It’s shockingly disingenuous to argue all of these new agents will only be answering phone calls.”
Fact-checking websites have also taken aim at some of the rhetoric and online chatter fueling Republican arguments about the increased tax enforcement budget.
The Poynter Institute, a Florida journalism school and media studies center, called claims that the new funding would militarize the IRS “outlandish.”
“One outlandish claim suggested those new IRS agents might soon be coming to your door armed to the teeth to collect your taxes, if not for a dramatic early morning intervention by ‘Delta Force’ soldiers,” fact-checker Jeff Cercone wrote for the Poynter Institute’s Politifact website about a false news story that came out prior to Grassley’s appearance on “Fox and Friends.”
Democrats have long argued the IRS needed a major funding boost as audit rates and hiring levels dipped over the last decade. They say the lack of audits has benefitted rich taxpayers, a finding buttressed by a report on tax compliance released in May from the Government Accountability Office, the government’s internal watchdog.
The report found that in recent years, “audit rates have dropped for all income levels — with audit rates decreasing the most for taxpayers with incomes of $200,000 or more.”
Findings like this one have caused Democrats to argue for more enforcement at the IRS and to call out Republicans for getting in the way.
“For decades, Republicans have starved the IRS of funding, and now American taxpayers are paying the price,” House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-Mass.) said in a statement back in February. “The IRS needs greater support to carry out its most essential functions, like processing tax returns, enforcing the tax code, and closing the tax gap. Without resources from Congress to update its woefully out-of-date technology, the agency simply cannot operate at the level American taxpayers expect.”
Republican lawmakers have repeatedly argued against providing more money for the IRS.
“This additional money for the IRS to target all Americans is absolutely wrong. It will target our families, it’s going to target our small businesses, and it’s going to go after them to get them to pay more money,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) said back in December 2021 about the Democrats’ unsuccessful Build Back Better legislation, which also proposed an IRS enforcement funding boost.
Experts say it’s not entirely clear how the IRS will actually use its new funding.
The bill’s “language was pretty generic,” former Congressional Budget Office tax analyst Janet Holtzblatt said in an interview. “It doesn’t really get into the specifics about how the money aligns to a particular task. It certainly doesn’t say how many employees there will be, how much will be spent on computers, how much will be spent on rent. But all of that will be covered.”
Republicans have made the argument about 87,000 new tax collectors targeting the middle class by pointing to a Treasury report released in May 2021 that said that $80 billion would allow for 86,852 new full-time employees at the IRS. Experts say they wouldn’t all be auditors.
“They didn’t give details on how they came up with this very precise number,” Janet Holtzblatt said. “But they didn’t ever say that those were all going to be auditors. The report said that part of the new workforce would be customer service reps to help navigate issues.”
Republicans have locked on to the 87,000 figure, sensing a political opportunity.
“I guarantee you citizens in every one of our states, if you ask them, what do they want, they don’t want 87,000 new IRS agents,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said after proposing an amendment to strike the additional funding for the IRS from the Democrats’ bill.
The figure of 87,000 new auditors has also been criticized by fact-checking websites. Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler called it “wildly exaggerated” in giving House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) a rating of “three Pinocchios” for the claim.
Republicans have also said the language in the bill doesn’t mean the IRS will just go after corporations and the wealthy.
“They’re being created to audit you,” Cruz said before pointing to an estimate from Republicans on the House Ways and Means Committee that claimed 700,000 of the 1.2 million new audits that could be conducted because of the new funding will fall on taxpayers making $75,000 or less.
But the Treasury Department and the IRS have both made assurances that rich people and corporations, whose audit rates have decreased more sharply in recent years relative to regular Americans, are the intended targets.
The IRS criminal investigation division (IRS-CI), who are federal law enforcement officials like the FBI and U.S. Marshals, told The Hill that they are not going after any one segment of American taxpayers other than people who cheat on their taxes.
The division said in a statement to The Hill that its “special agents are sworn law enforcement agents investigating tax crimes and criminal activities that may include gangs, drug dealers, and other dangerous criminals. In order to carry out their daily duties, such as search warrants and arrests, CI special agents carry firearms. They also receive continuous annual training in order to carry firearms.”
In an interview with The Hill, IRS-CI spokesperson Anny Pachner said that “the IRS Criminal Investigation Division has about 3,000 employees. About 2,100, or roughly 2,000, of those are special agents, federal law enforcement agents. They investigate financial crimes and violations of the U.S. tax code. Our agents go after criminals that are cheating taxpayers and the federal government. That’s their work, to investigate those crimes, make sure they’re stopped, and return the funds back to victims.” | https://www.wpri.com/news/national/gop-under-fire-for-rhetoric-over-irs/ | 2022-08-13T19:04:47Z | https://www.wpri.com/news/national/gop-under-fire-for-rhetoric-over-irs/ | true | 17 |

Steven Schumacher was pleased with the energy and attacking intent his Plymouth Argyle side played with as they beat Peterborough United 2-0 at a scorching hot Home Park.
Schumacher described it as 'brilliant result and really good performance' as the Pilgrims stuck to the game plan he had set for them despite the extreme weather conditions.
Peterborough, who went into the match with the only 100 per cent record in League One after two rounds of matches this season, had no answer to Argyle's intensity.

They have already beaten two of the three teams relegated from the Championship - Barnsley (1-0) and now Peterborough - at the Theatre of Greens in the opening fortnight of the 2022/23 campaign, and without conceding a goal.
Schumacher insisted there was still plenty for the Pilgrims to improve on, but he was encouraged by the way the attacking trio of Ryan Hardie, Finn Azaz and Danny Mayor are starting to gel together in the 3-4-2-1 formation he is using.
Azaz, the loan signing from Aston Villa, opened the scoring against Peterborough in the 30th minute, while Hardie made it 2-0 shortly after the hour mark had passed from the penalty spot after Bali Mumba had been fouled.
It was the perfect response from the Pilgrims after their 2-0 defeat by the same opponents and at the same venue in the Carabao Cup first round on Wednesday night.
Schumacher said: "It was a brilliant result and a really good performance I felt, right from the first whistle we were at it today.
"We spoke on Thursday and Friday about us not starting the game well enough on Wednesday night against these and we sort of allowed them a little bit too much time and space on the ball.
"We looked at it, worked on it, and felt if we could get some pressure on them early on, try and get the crowd behind us and play a good tempo - especially in the heat - then that would be hard to beat, and it was.
"I felt we fully deserved our lead when we got it. We probably should have scored before we did get the first goal but I can't be too critical. Overall it was a really good performance."
Pitchside temperatures inside Home Park were in excess of 40 degrees centigrade but Argyle did not deviate away from their high-tempo strategy from the kick-off.
Schumacher said: "It was in the back of our thoughts but we couldn't change the way we were going to play because it was going to be hot.
"We just knew what we did the other night played into Peterborough's hands. We were a bit too easy to play against. We spoke about it, we showed the players it and we worked on it.
"Thankfully the game plan was spot on and the lads executed it and played really well. We caused Peterborough some problems, forced turnovers and probably could have scored a couple more goals. It wasn't to be but it was a really pleasing day."
Azaz and Hardie have already scored two goals apiece at the start of the season and, along with Mayor, there are encouraging signs the trio can be an attacking force to be feared this season.
Schumacher said: "They are all good players and they have got loads of ability. I just think the understanding of them playing together and understanding the system is getting there.
"It's not perfect yet, but it's getting better. As we seen today, when we get it right and we play forwards into them three attacking players at the top of the pitch it's hard to stop.
"It's really pleasing they are gelling and getting to grips with it but I still think there is room for improvement as well."
Such was Argyle's superiority in the first half that Peterborough boss Grant McCann make four substitutions at the start of the second period to try and get a reaction from his side, who had struggled in the fierce sunshine.
Schumacher said: "We expected that Grant would make changes at half-time because we were dominant in the first half. We didn't expect four changes but that's what we got.
"I thought they were better after that, the changes were good. They changed their shape, they made it a bit more difficult for us to get a press on because they had a back four rather than three.
"We had to adjust then. We just felt they were getting a foothold in the game and it was still 1-0 so we decided to go back to 3-5-2.
"We played with two strikers up the top, to try and stem the tide coming at us, and I thought it worked. Thankfully we got the second goal to give us all a little bit of breathing space."
Niall Ennis was sent on to play up front with Hardie in the 59th minute, with Mayor the player to make way for him. Soon afterwards Argyle went 2-0 up with the penalty and they were always in control after that.
Matt Butcher then replaced Adam Randell in the 70th minute, before Nigel Lonwijk and Morgan Whittaker took over from Mumba and Hardie in the closing stages.
Schumacher thought all of the substitutes had contributed to the fine all-round display. He said: "You make a decision, we speak together about it as a staff, sometimes you get it right, sometimes you get wrong.
"I felt today all of the subs that came on made an impact and helped the team, and that's what you want, it's a squad game."
The Pilgrims' boss soon turned his attention to Argyle's next game, away to Charlton Athletic at The Valley on Tuesday night, and trying to build on the victory over Peterborough.
He said: "I still think there's loads of improvement for us. We can play forwards more, we can have a little bit more accuracy when we are attacking, and be more clinical, but we have just got to play with that energy.
"We are hard to stop when we run like that. We have played Barnsley and Peterborough who were Championship teams last season and beat them both at Home Park without conceding.
"That was another thing we looked at in the summer. We have got to pick points up against teams who are going to be in the top six, and I fancy Barnsley and Peterborough to both be up there.
"So far so good. We have managed to get early points on the board against good sides, but it's important now we go and back it up on Tuesday and try and get a result again because if you want to be up there you have got to be consistent."

General News of Saturday, 13 August 2022

Member of Parliament (MP) for Okaikoi North Constituency in the Greater Accra Region, Theresa Lardi Awuni has encouraged women not to shy away from leadership roles but to strive harder to contribute to the growth and development of the nation.
“I encourage you to continue pushing harder with your best possible means to be socioeconomically stable, become independent and supportive to the development of the country in spite of difficulties you will face,” she said.
According to her, women have peculiar hidden talents that needed to be harnessed for benefit of society and the nation at large by rubbing shoulders with their male counterparts and not being submissive to them to achieve their hopes and aspirations.
She gave the encouragement in an interview with the Ghanaian Times in Accra on the sidelines of a meeting with women in her constituency to strive harder and take up leadership roles when it availed to them instead of shying away.
Ms Awuni admonished them to take up such roles without any unclear and cohesive gender mainstreaming strategies to contribute their quota to the progress, growth and development of the country.
“There are a number of women whose potential are being undermined due to religious, cultural, traditional practices and gender-based violence in any form are threat to harnessing your potential, harmful to your well-being and also violates your fundamental human rights, hence victims must report to authorities when their rights are being violated.
“Gender parity is an essential tool for the progress, growth and development of a girl-child and women must be treated with dignity to make them attain their feat in nation building since most issues of women seem not to be a universal concern, people do not often pay attention to them but it is critical to the development of the nation and men should be on board in fighting for women’s rights,” Ms Awuni bemoaned.
She appealed to women to remain resolute, resilient and focused in their endeavours by executing sterling performances wherever they found themselves and never be intimidated by their female and male counterparts who tried to sideline them. | https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/Don-t-shy-away-from-leadership-roles-MP-encourages-women-1602398 | 2022-08-13T19:22:36Z | https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/Don-t-shy-away-from-leadership-roles-MP-encourages-women-1602398 | false | 4 |
The flagship climate change and health care bill passed by Democrats and soon to be signed by President Joe Biden will bring U.S. taxpayers one step closer to a government-operated electronic free-file tax return system.
It’s something lawmakers and advocates have been seeking for years. For many Americans, it's frustrating that beyond having to pay sometimes hefty tax bills, they also have to shell out additional money for tax preparation programs or preparers because of an increasingly complex U.S. tax system.
“It’s definitely something we should do, and when the IRS is adequately resourced, it’s something that will happen," said Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen at a June Senate Finance Committee hearing.
And now that the IRS is set to receive nearly $80 billion through the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act,” the agency has the means to develop new systems to help Americans pay their taxes. The legislation passed Congress on Friday.
Several hurdles stand in the way. Even in a best-case scenario, it will likely take years to get a new, free system up and running. There's also pushback from commercial tax preparation companies, which question whether Americans want the IRS to prepare their taxes.
Perhaps this biggest hurdle is an agreement between the IRS and some commercial tax preparation companies, known as the Free File Alliance, which prevents the federal agency from creating its own free tax return filing system. In short, the IRS agreed not to create its own filing system if companies would instead provide free services to taxpayers making $73,000 or less.
This program, though, has been marred with controversy, with commercial firms misrepresenting their services and low taxpayer participation rates.
The Government Accountability Office in April reported that while 70% of taxpayers were eligible for services through the Free File Alliance, only 3% of taxpayers actually use the service. The watchdog recommended the IRS find new free filing options before the Alliance expires in October 2023.
With the funding in the bill, the IRS has an opportunity to create a new system.
Included is a provision that allots $15 million to the IRS to make plans for a free direct e-file tax return system. Those plans would have to be developed within nine months and would include cost estimates for creating and administering a system. They would also require public input.
There are also legislative attempts to move this effort along.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., in July resubmitted a bill called the Tax Filing Simplification Act that would require the IRS to create its own free online tax filing service and move away from its partnership with private online tax preparation companies.
“I’ve been pushing for a free tax filing system for years, and now the IRS is on the verge of having significant funding to modernize its IT systems, which means it’s time to develop simplified filing tools laid out in my Tax Filing Simplification Act," Warren told The Associated Press.
“Americans spend too much time and money to file their taxes, and the IRS should adopt these proposals to help millions of Americans file taxes and claim refunds.”
At her Finance Committee appearance, Yellen called for a new system.
"There’s no reason in the world that a modern economy shouldn’t have a system that makes it easy for such a large group of taxpayers to file their returns," she said.
Vanessa Williamson, a senior fellow at the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, said “if the IRS moves forward with a free product, it could save lower-income families the money they used to give to H&R Block or TurboTax.”
“Tax prep companies are notorious for tricking tax filers into paying for services they should be getting for free," Williamson said, “so an IRS free file service would be a very welcome step that would save Americans money.”
In 2019, ProPublica wrote about Intuit's TurboTax and H&R Block Inc.'s efforts to mislead taxpayers away from the federally supported free services for which they qualified. And in May, New York Attorney General Letitia James secured a $141 million settlement with Mountain View, California-based Intuit Inc., which had to pay restitution to some taxpayers.
Intuit withdrew from the Alliance in July 2021, stating in a blog post that the company could provide its benefits without the Free File Alliance's limitations. H&R Block withdrew from the partnership in 2020.
“Most Americans don’t want the tax collector to also serve as the tax preparer,” said Derrick L. Plummer, a spokesman for Intuit.
“The IRS already has a core mission that it needs to focus on, and creating a new system would cost billions of taxpayer dollars and jeopardize the financial freedom of millions more,” he said. A spokesperson for H&R Block did not respond to an Associated Press request for comment.
Ideas for what a government run free-file program might look like are already being studied.
Bruce Sacerdote, a Dartmouth economist, has examined systems in other countries in which taxpayers don't have to enter much data on their electronic forms because the government has already done so.
“The IRS has tremendous amounts of information on wages and dividends,” he said, adding that a government-supported tax filing system “could be a wonderful thing.”
Such systems are used in Germany, Japan and other Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries that collaborate to develop policies that promote economic growth.
“As a taxpayer, there could be a great benefit to pre-population,” he said. “Filing taxes is enormously time-consuming. Given all the information the IRS has on taxpayers, they could simply send you a completed return." | https://www.nbcboston.com/news/politics/expanded-irs-free-file-system-one-step-closer-in-dems-bill/2807496/ | 2022-08-13T19:26:56Z | https://www.nbcboston.com/news/politics/expanded-irs-free-file-system-one-step-closer-in-dems-bill/2807496/ | true | 49 |
(NewsNation) — Voters are heading to the polls to decide who will get Hawaii’s party nominations and advance to the general election in the fall.
Hawaii has several important key items on the ballot this Saturday, including a tight race for governor and races for congressional seats.
On the Democratic side of the primary for governor, incumbent Gov. David Ige, who is vying for a second term, is facing off against U.S. Rep. Colleen Hanabusa, who gave up her seat in Congress to compete. On the Republican side, John Carroll is competing against state Rep.

The Steelers’ first preseason game of the year is just around the corner, and hopes are high for the team. Throughout Pittsburgh’s three exhibition games to prepare for the regular season, fans should get a chance to preview the play of not just the team’s reserve players, but likely a few drives with this year’s starters.
Below is a very basic primer on what to look for in each position group this preseason as each room will be trying to prove themselves. There are many best-cast scenarios that would clear up a number of the uncertainties on the Steelers roster. In the comments, feel free to add what other plausible improvements you hope to see in this preseason from the Steelers roster.
Quarterbacks: Meet expectations
It’s hard to pinpoint just one thing this room needs. For this position, we’ll split it up by player.
Mitch Trubisky: Athleticism and decision-making
Trubisky isn’t the long-term solution in Pittsburgh, but it’s been pretty clear ever since he signed with the team that the Week 1 starting job is his to lose. He doesn’t need to light the world on fire in the preseason, but it’d be nice if he can show off the athleticism and mobility the Steelers likely signed him for to lead Matt Canada’s offense with. Beyond that, the best way he can help the Steelers this season is by taking care of the football to supplement the run game and keep the defense fresh. If he can show these traits in the preseason, he’ll show that he has what it takes to be the bridge quarterback the Steelers need this season.
Kenny Pickett: Steady improvement
Is Kenny Pickett the Steelers’ next franchise quarterback? He was certainly drafted to be. It’s highly, highly unlikely the Steelers would even consider starting him early this season, so Pickett doesn’t need to be a Pro Bowler right away. He simply needs to show that he has the tools to do so.
Mason Rudolph: Show something worth trading for
This seems harsh, but if Mason Rudolph wins the Steelers quarterback competition this season it would likely be a failure on the part of the front office, which spent free agent money and a first round draft pick on two quarterbacks to lead the team instead of Rudolph. It’s simply best for the Steelers if Rudolph doesn’t win the quarterback competition but instead shows enough in the preseason for another team to trade for him with respectable compensation. Then, Pittsburgh can focus on Trubisky and Pickett in the future.
Chris Oladokun: Be worth the draft pick
It was baffling at the time, and still is, that the Steelers spent a pick on Oladokun in the 2022 NFL Draft with three solid quarterbacks already on the roster. That confusion has been further compounded by the team’s reluctance to give Oladokun much of a chance to prove himself in training camp. He’ll likely get some chances in the preseason, however, and can hopefully show the traits of a good QB3 or even QB2. That would further incentivize trading Rudolph as well.
Running Back: Find a RB2
Perhaps the most obvious heading on this list: the Steelers desperately need to find a complementary back to Najee Harris. Pittsburgh’s multiple hosted workouts and signings of various backs across the league show that the team feels the same way. This preseason, Benny Snell, Anthony McFarland, Jaylen Warren, and the many other running backs on the roster will have a chance at claiming that RB2 spot. But it isn’t just about separating from the pack — it’s about showing who can be a viable weapon in a regular season NFL game, something none of the backs on the Steelers roster, besides Harris himself, have proven at this point.
Wide receiver: Minimize mistakes
The depth and talent of the Steelers’ WR room is undeniable, but they’ve yet to unlock their full potential. Drops, miscommunications, and even some maturity issues plagued the group last year, and with a new quarterback and some rookie additions this offseason, there’s no guarantee those problems will disappear in 2022.
It’s up to new WR coach Frisman Jackson and the receivers themselves to show improved focus this season and elevate the group into one of the better wide receiver cores in the league. That may seem unreasonable, but it’s an achievable ceiling for this incredibly talented group. With a tight battle to make the final roster for many at this position, minimizing mistakes will be paramount for many Steelers receivers this preseason.
Tight ends: Find a TE3
Pat Freiermuth is among the best young tight ends in the NFL right now, and Zach Gentry seems to have solidified his position as a good second option. But who comes next on the depth chart? It’s a wide-open positional battle between Connor Heyward, Jace Sternberger, and Kevin Rader, all of whom possess wildly different specialties and essentially the same chance at making the roster. The best bet is the rookie Heyward, who has the football pedigree and multifaceted skill set to claim the role, but he’s rather undersized for the position and will have to prove himself this preseason.
Offensive line: Show talent
The Steelers’ offensive line is considered among the team’s weakest positional groups. It’s fair to say that a number of the names Pittsburgh started last year would not have been starting on many other squads. That being said, the group was undermanned and inexperienced last season. With a new coach, some free agent talent, and a year of experience under their belts, a lot could change for the Pittsburgh O-line in 2022.
Dan Moore has reportedly enjoyed a good camp after enduring a trial by fire last year at left tackle, while Kendrick Green’s move to guard seems to be a good change for the athletic-yet-undersized interior lineman. His battle for the left guard spot with boom-or-bust prospect Kevin Dotson will be one to watch this preseason.
Despite fears of a plateau, Chukwuma Okorafor has a chance at improving this year with a new coach. Free agent addition Mason Cole should be a noticeable improvement over Green at center this year, while former Bear James Daniels might be the best offensive lineman this team has had for the past couple years as well.
A lot has changed regarding personnel and philosophy, and don’t underestimate how valuable a year of experience can be for last season’s rookies. There could be a night-and-day improvement for the offensive line as opposed to last year, but the truth will come out on game day. Hopefully, their performance this preseason will showcase that they can be a viable starting NFL unit.
Defensive line: Stop the run
The Steelers’ defensive front desperately needs to prove they can stop the run this preseason. It’s widely known the Steelers’ defensive line can rush the passer, but run defense has been a different story, with the Pittsburgh defense getting absolutely gashed in 2021 to the tune of 143.8 rushing yards allowed per game, an NFL-worst.
Injuries were a large part of the issue, but there’s still undeniable room for improvement. Offseason additions Larry Ogunjobi and DeMarvin Leal should help the problem, while young depth pieces such as Montravius Adams and the Davis brothers continue to show improvement. For veterans like Cam Heyward and Tyson Alualu, it’ll just be important to stay healthy. This defensive line seems to have the talent to be a formidable force this season, but this preseason will start to show if they truly have what it takes.
Inside Linebacker: Everything
There just isn’t much we know about this group. Even Devin Bush’s trademark athleticism is in doubt as it’s unclear if he ever fully recovered from 2020’s ACL injury, while it remains to be seen if Myles Jack can revive his career in Pittsburgh. Robert Spillane has had an inconsistent NFL career as has the depth behind him. How will this group stop the run? Is there enough athleticism to defend the pass? How strong is the depth? These major unknowns will begin to be answered this preseason.
EDGE: A big year for Highsmith
Alex Highsmith had a great preseason last year, but his regular season remained good but not great. He’s a solid linebacker already, but a Bud Dupree-esque leap this season opposite T.J. Watt could take the Steelers pass-rush to even higher levels. If Highsmith can show even more improvement this preseason, it would be an excellent sign for Pittsburgh’s defense.
The depth at this position behind Highsmith and Watt remains something to watch as well.
Cornerback: Find a CB1
The Steelers have a seemingly solid cornerback room this year, but there’s a glaring absence of a true CB1. Akhello Witherspoon, Levi Wallace, and Cam Sutton are all quality CB2s, but it remains to be seen if there’s a corner of shutdown quality like a truly elite defense requires. Cam Sutton seems to have shown all he has to offer at this point, but there’s a chance that Wallace’s fit on the Steeler defense or Witherspoon’s immense potential and confidence can turn into something special. This isn’t to say that the Steelers have a Jalen Ramsey hidden somewhere on the roster, but there’s a big need for a corner to step up in a big way, and one just might this preseason.
Safety: Damontae Kazee shines
The Steelers have a good starting safety duo in Terrell Edmunds and Minkah Fitzpatrick, but it has been a while since the team has had a quality third safety. However, with the Steelers’ offseason addition of veteran safety Damontae Kazee, a step above the usual depth signing, that could change. Kazee has a good bit of starting experience in his NFL career, even leading the league in interceptions in 2018. There’s no expectation of Kazee starting this year for Pittsburgh, but some quality play from him this preseason would lessen the chance of disaster if Edmunds or Fitzpatrick miss some games in 2022.
Specialists: Consistency
There aren’t many worries regarding Chris Boswell and Christian Kuntz, but consistency is most important for punter Pressley Harvin, who showed some talent last year but also a penchant for shanks. It should be noted that Harvin was dealing with two family deaths last year all while playing as a rookie in a harsh punting environment. With his challenging first season behind him, the expectations are higher for Harvin this year. With his talent he has a very good chance at greatly improving his play this preseason and showing he can be a reliable asset to the special teams unit.
Consistency is also essential for those competing to be the starting returner. Big plays in the return game are great, but what’s most important — and what Mike Tomlin values the most — is consistent, clean fielding of kicks and punts.
Of course, the most important thing to hope for this preseason are a lack of injuries for both the Steelers and their opponents.
Even in the preseason, it can be too early to draw conclusions about the state of the roster heading into the regular season. But if the Steelers can show some of the improvements listed above, it will be a good sign for when the games finally start to count.

ROME (AP) — Seventeen-year-old David Popovici of Romania became the youngest swimmer to break the world swimming record in the men's 100-meter freestyle Saturday, beating the mark set more than 13 years ago in the same pool.
Popovici touched in 46.86 seconds at the European championships to top the time of 46.91 set by Brazil's César Cielo at the 2009 world championships, which also were held at Rome's historic Foro Italico.
Cielo established his record on July 30, 2009, at the last major international meet to allow rubberized suits. It stood longer than any record in the event's history, going back to 1905.
Now, it belongs to one of the sport's budding stars.
“There was no rush and I had to be extremely patient about the world record," Popovici said. "It has hurt but it’s always worth it and I feel fine right now. It felt great and it’s very special to break this record which was set here in 2009 by César Cielo.”
Cielo still holds the record in the 50 free, which is among eight men's long-course standards that remain from the rubber-suit era. Five of those were set at those supercharged 2009 worlds.
Popovici went out in 22.74 and set the record by going 24.12 on the return lap to easily beat Hungarian butterfly specialist Kristóf Milák by 0.61. Italy’s Alessandro Miressi claimed the bronze in 47.63.
“This was a brilliant race, a joy to swim next to David," Milák said. “David is a fantastic swimmer, I think the same crazy genius of the freestyle that I am in the butterfly. It’s great that his name will hit the headlines for long, long years.”
Popovici's emergence sets up a potentially huge showdown at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where American star Caeleb Dressel — winner of five gold medals at last summer's Tokyo Games — will come in as the reigning gold medalist in the 100 free.
Popovic had his coming-out at this year's worlds in Budapest, sweeping golds in the 100 and 200 free. He didn't get a chance to swim the 100 against Dressel, who dropped out of the event for health reasons before the final.
Milák, world record-holder in the 200 fly, hopes to also be part of the freestyle mix in Paris.
“My goal is very clear,” the Hungarian said. "I just want to reach a level in this event to arrive to Paris 2024 with the capability of swimming a time somewhere very close to 47 seconds.”

The FAI have held talks with Jack McGlynn over his international future.
Philadelphia Union midfielder Jack McGlynn has been formally approached by the FAI, Pundit Arena understands.
The 19-year-old, who has 32 MLS appearances to his name, qualifies for the Boys in Green through his Dublin born father Paul.
McGlynn was invited to a recent Ireland under-19 training camp but director of football at Philadelphia Union, Ernst Tanner, refused to release him as he was needed for first team games.
Crawford and Mohan keen on Jack McGlynn
Both Ireland under-19 manager Tom Mohan and Ireland under-21 manager Jim Crawford are keen admirers of the playmaker and have already held constructive talks with him.
Although no definitive commitment has been stated by McGlynn or his representatives at this stage, there is optimism amongst the FAI employees involved in the talks.
This, despite the fact McGlynn has represented the USA on numerous occasions at underage level, and made his USA under-21 debut last November against Brazil.

Since then, he has made a further ten appearances for the USA U21s and played a key role in their CONCAUF U-20 Championship triumph last month.
Jack McGlynn.
McGlynn was born in New York and developed his game at the famous BW Gottschee Academy.
In 2019, McGlynn joined Philadelphia Union’s academy and was later promoted to their USL Championship outfit Philadelphia Union II.
After scoring five goals in fourteen games for Philadelphia’s second string, the technician signed as a first team player in January 2021 and made his MLS debut in April 2021 against Inter Miami.

With a refined passing game for his young age, he has taken to first team football with ease and could soon attract the attention of USA manager Gregg Berhalter.
Should Ireland swoop in however, he would almost certainly be a key player in the next under-21 cycle under Jim Crawford.

Reese Witherspoon seemingly denied that there is any fight between her and gal pal Jennifer Aniston amid rumours that the Friends’ alum is enraged with her The Morning Show co-star.
The speculations about the alleged war between the duo started after Witherspoon received the Emmy nod for the AppleTV+ show but Aniston did not.
However, it seems like there is nothing wrong with the besties after the Legally Blonde star dropped a sweet comment under Aniston’s recent post.
“Sweet doggie cuddles,” Witherspoon commented under Aniston’s Instagram post featuring her adorable dog.
Previously, an insider told Star Magazine that Aniston’s “fuming” that she could not make it to the final list of nods at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards.
"Jen's camp is privately briefing people that she wasn't trying to get a nomination this year and is happy for Reese," an insider close to the actor told the outlet.
However, sources claimed that Aniston, who got the nod for the show in 2020, is “fuming privately and very embarrassed,” despite her representative denying the story to the publication.
The actors have allegedly strained their bond despite having a rich history of friendship as they both starred as sisters on the hit comedy sitcom and now star together on the drama series.
"They're both professional, but there's a lot of eye-rolling," an insider said of their on-set dynamic.
"And it's telling that Jen's friends are saying [Euphoria's] Zendaya is a lock to win. It smacks of sour grapes," the source added.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag isn’t interested in scapegoats after Manchester United’s 4-0 loss to Brentford on Saturday in London.
Nope. He’s mad at everyone.
Asked why he pulled Lisandro Martinez, Fred, and Luke Shaw out at halftime with United already down 4-0, Ten Hag said it’s because there are rules about substitutions.
[ MORE: Three things we learned from Brentford vs Man Utd ]
“Down 4-0, the message is that it’s not possible,” Ten Hag said. “I would’ve changed the eight others as well if I could.”
The Red Devils were miserable in the first half and two sizable errors from David De Gea set them down a bad path.
Ten Hag felt he felt sorry for the fans, and he refused to tear into De Gea (while of course acknowledging the Spaniard’s errors).
"You have to take responsibility on the pitch as a team and as individuals, and that's what we didn't do.

He kept referencing the need for Manchester United to “take responsibility” for themselves on the pitch.
“What I asked them to do is play with belief and take responsibility for their performance and that’s what they didn’t do,” he said. “We have to see the truth and work on that. It’s only when we stick together and work hard that we’ll overcome that. Belief, you have to bring on the pitch yourself.”
[ MORE: JPW’s analysis from Brentford vs Man United ]
Ten Hag was quick to say that he played a role in the loss as well. Again, this wasn’t a day for singling out errors. Almost everyone was bad.
“The manager is very responsible and I will take that,” Ten Hag said. “I have to keep [building] that belief but they also have to get that by themselves. … We are as a team in a difficult process. You would expect a different start. We did quite well [in preseason] but what happens in the past has been brought into this season and we need to change that quickly.”
David De Gea takes responsibility; Ten Hag backs goalkeeper
Full marks to Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea, whose errors hurt the team. He asked to take the post-match interviews and claimed total responsibility for the loss.
And his manager had his back.
“He’s a great goalkeeper,” Ten Hag said. “The first goals he knows… but still you have to stick to the plan and move on. Mistakes are part of football. You have to keep going, play as a team, and especially act as a team.”
De Gea, unfortunately, is used to taking to the microphone after big losses even when they aren’t his fault.
The United star is a true team leader and proffered pointed words about his team even in taking responsibility for the loss.
Essentially, he says United is soft right now.
“Other teams can concede one goal and win 5-1, 6-1,” De Gea said. “This is why I think I cost us three points. It wasn’t safe and it was 1-0 to them and I felt already it was going down, down, down. We have to react much better and be capable of scoring goals, at least.”
It’s not a good position for a team, having a star keeper who feels he can’t concede the first goal of the game because his teammates could well fall apart.
Yikes.
“I want to take responsibility,” De Gea said. “I cost my team three points today. It was a poor performance from myself. After the first mistake and the second it was very tough to be plain. It was a horrible day.”
“That can happen in professional football, a mistake like I make. Of course we should’ve reacted better. I should’ve saved the first shot and the result probably would’ve been different.”
Good luck.

Lynne Mishele is speaking out after Anne Heche's death. The tenant in the home that burned down as a result of the late actress' fiery car crash earlier this month took to Instagram on Friday to react to news of Heche's death.
"The news of Anne Heche passing is devastating. Her family and her friends and her children, especially, really have suffered a great loss, and my heart goes out for them," Mishele said of Heche's two sons -- Homer, 20, and Atlas, 13. "This entire situation is tragic. There really are just no words. I'm sending love to everyone involved."
Mishele lived in the 738-square-foot, two-story home, which the Los Angeles Fire Department said had structural compromise and a heavy fire after the crash. Per the LAFD, 59 firefighters took 65 minutes to access, confine and fully extinguish the stubborn flames within the heavily damaged structure.
She previously reacted to the crash in a statement to ET through her lawyer, Shawn Holley.
"Ms. Mishele is devastated by what happened to her on Friday -- not only because she and her pets almost lost their lives, but because all of her property, including items of profound sentimental value, were destroyed," Holley told ET on behalf of Mishele. "She asks for privacy at this incredibly difficult time."
Then, in a video posted to Instagram, Mishele expressed thanks for the support she received following the crash. A GoFundMe started on Mishele's behalf has raised more than $150,000 as of Friday afternoon.
"I'm still recovering and trying to figure out up from down but I did want to send a huge, huge thank you to everybody from all over the world, for the overwhelming amount of love and compassion and generosity and kindness that people have shown over the past week," she said. "It's obviously been the most insane, traumatic time, confusing... eventually I'll try to get back to everybody and try to read everybody's comments."
"Thank you everybody from the bottom of my heart. It's really, truly overwhelming," she added. "You guys really have impacted my life in a really profound way so thank you so much to everybody and I will keep you updated."
Mishele's latest comments came hours after Heche's rep told ET that the actress had died at age 53. While Heche's heart is still beating, she is brain dead, which is the definition of death according to California law, Heche's rep told ET.
Heche has not been taken off life support because doctors are working to determine if her organs are viable, as the late actress was an organ donor, her rep said.
"Today we lost a bright light, a kind and most joyful soul, a loving mother, and a loyal friend," Heche's rep told ET in a statement. "Anne will be deeply missed but she lives on through her beautiful sons, her iconic body of work, and her passionate advocacy. Her bravery for always standing in her truth, spreading her message of love and acceptance, will continue to have a lasting impact."

The Lemonheads to Celebrate ‘It’s a Shame About Ray’ 30th Anniversary on Fall Tour
Click here to read the full article.
Boston alt-rock stalwarts the Lemonheads will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their hit album, It’s a Shame About Ray , with a North American tour this fall.
The Lemonheads will be performing the album in its entirety throughout the trek. Released in 1992, It’s a Shame About Ray marked the band’s fifth album, and its title track became a rock hit in the U.S., the U.K., and Australia. The band also garnered a ton of success with their cover of Simon and Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson,” which was added to later pressings of the album.
The 30th anniversary tour for It’s a Shame About Ray will kick off Nov. 17 at Mickey’s Black Box in Litiz, Pennsylvania and wrap Dec. 17 with a homecoming show at Paradise in Boston. The Lemonheads will receive support from Bass Drum of Death, On Being an Angel, former bandmate Juliana Hatfield, and Rusty, the Nils, on select dates. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, Aug. 12, with complete information on the Lemonheads’ website .
Along with the fall tour, the Lemonheads released a special 30th anniversary edition of It’s a Shame About Ray earlier this year. The record houses a handful of extras including an unreleased version of “My Drug Buddy” recorded at the radio station KCRW in 1992 with Hatfield, as well as demos being released for the first time on vinyl.

The “wedge in the old health gears” preparatory to a radical change in the public system left by the outgoing health minister Roberto Speranza as the culmination of the season that saw him protagonist of the management passed silently, without headlines and talk shows. of health policy at the national level. On this the minister has often clashed with the inadequacy of regional health systems, including that of the Fvg, which has now slipped to the bottom of the rankings. Speranza’s vision of quality health, with the evident approval of Mario Draghi without whose endorsement the provision would not have been possible, is the real reason for the attacks carried out against the minister by the right, both of the government (Lega and FI) that of opposition Fdi. The decree published in number 144 of the Official Gazette, DM 77, and which came into force on 7 July, is one that promises to change the lives of Italians. “With the publication in the Official Gazette of the territorial assistance reform decree – commented Health Minister Roberto Speranza – all the objectives of the PNRR Salute, expiring on 30 June, have been achieved. Now we can invest unprecedented resources to strengthen our National Health Service ”. In essence, the decree asks all regions to equip themselves with an adequate “territorial” organization by January 2023: those who do not do so will lose 2-3% of the supplementary funding of the National Health Fund and obviously millions of euros. The SSN’s financing system is based on the regional fiscal capacity, even if corrected by adequate equalization measures, establishing that IRAP, the regional surcharge on IRPEF and the participation in VAT contribute to the financing of the SSN. This decree is undoubtedly the most important legacy left by the outgoing minister Roberto Speranza. The text defines in detail the new organization that the health services for citizens will have to have. It foresees that there must be Community Houses (Cdc) open 7 days a week for 24 hours with general practitioners and pediatricians (30-35 in rotation) and nurses (7-11) in service, but also psychologists, obstetricians, social workers , rehabilitation technicians. In short, all the health professionals who can reach diagnosis and treatment without forcing the citizen to the wheel of fortune of individual bookings for specialist visits. Obviously, if the situation is not manageable by this first impact structure, the hospital option will remain but the community option. A small hospital that can manage acute pathologies but also aggravations of chronic diseases. All that can be done without going to a large hospital to clog it up with small pathologies that can be solved differently. A real revolution also because the DM77 then introduces other institutions necessary to treat us, which organize home care, hospices and so on. The news are many and the fact of having foreseen a penalty for those who do not adapt should, but the conditional is a must, force the regions to act, because the possible political revolution following the early elections could see a new minister dismantle the system public in favor of the private sector, a difficult operation because the plan is included in the NRP and therefore dismantling it could have consequences on the disbursement of European funds. Also for this reason, times are very tight, probably deliberately, because a new government will not have time to dismantle the Speranza rule before January 31, 2023. We are waiting for September 25 and then January 31 2023, but however things go we are sure that the Fvg will not be ready to adapt the structures to the new course.
Ministerial Decree 77/2022, published in the Official Gazette 144
What has so far been defined as “Ministerial Decree 71” for continuity with Ministerial Decree 70 regarding the hospital now has a name: it is Ministerial Decree 77/2022, published in the Official Gazette no.144 of June 22, 2022, after the resolution of 21 April 2022 (published in May) of the Council of Ministers with which, overcoming the lack of agreement on the provision in the State Regions, the new model of territorial organization was launched.
Here are the main innovations of the Reform which redesigns above all the functions and standards of the District as described by the Ministry of Health.

The Greater Accra, Volta and Oti Regional Programme of ActionAid Ghana has commemorated this year’s International Youth Day to sensitise the society on issues affecting the youth.
The over 70 youth activists, who participated in the celebration in Ho, were selected from Activista, Young Urban Women Movement and GRAY Network youth groups.
Mr. Foster Adase-Adjei, the ActionAid Ghana Programme Officer for Volta and Oti regions, in an address, said the day was being marked all over the world to raise awareness about culture and legal issues related to the youth.
He said the Government needed to involve the youth in the decision-making process, which affected them right from the formative stage to the implementation stage.
This, he said, would enable them to factor their inputs in the policy rather than be left in the dark and consulted later to add their voices.
Mr. Adase-Adjei charged the youth to take advantage of the Government’s social prgrammes to develop themselves economically and financially.
He also called on the National Youth Authority (NYA) to organise regular workshops for the youth to update them on issues relating to their well-being.
Mr. Charles Kwesi Gomenu, Ho Municipal Director, NYA, said the Authority was established in 1974 to help facilitate the holistic development of young persons.
He asked the youth to be innovative and venture into entrepreneurship to earn a living.
Mr. Gomenu appealed to the affluent in society to support the young people to aspire to the top.
He admonished the youth to eschew corruption wherever they found themselves for the country’s progress.
He also advised them to plant trees to mitigate climate change, which is a threat to society.
Mr. John Kudedzi, a Youth Activist, advised the youth to read more so they could acquire the knowledge needed for empowerment.
He said they also needed to form more Civil Society Organisations to mount pressure on the Government to listen to their plight. | https://newsghana.com.gh/actionaid-commemorates-international-youth-day-in-ho/ | 2022-08-13T20:08:59Z | https://newsghana.com.gh/actionaid-commemorates-international-youth-day-in-ho/ | true | 1 |

The deeply religious 85-year-old mother of the late actress Anne Heche is nothing if not a survivor.
Nancy Heche has now outlived four of her five children — in addition to her secretly gay husband, Donald, who died of AIDS in 1983.
She admitted in her religion-heavy 2006 memoir, “The Truth Comes Out: When Someone You Love is in a Same-Sex Relationship,” to using amyl nitrate poppers with Donald to improve their sex life and taking married lovers.
Anne died Friday, one week after she drove her blue Mini Cooper at a high speed down an LA street and plowed into a small house, setting it afire along with her car.
Before Anne was born, her sister, Cynthia, then just 2-months-old, died from a heart defect. Anne’s 18-year-old brother Nathan died in a car accident three months after Don Heche’s death. Another sister, Susan Bergman, who wrote her own family memoir called “Anonymity,” died in 2006 from brain cancer.
Only one Heche sibling, Abigail, is still living.
The Chicago-based Nancy Heche, who is a Christian psychologist who uses the Bible in her counseling practice, was initially furious when Anne told her in 1997 that she’d fallen in love with Ellen DeGeneres.
“I am plummeted into disbelief and outrage,” she wrote. “I am dumbfounded, in a state of shock. Doesn’t Anne know what homosexuality has done to our family?”
“How will we ever be able to close the gap, the avowed heterosexual mother and the avowed homosexual daughter?” she added.
After the publication of Heche’s 2001 memoir, “Call Me Crazy,” Nancy Heche wrote that she found “no place among the lies and blasphemies in the pages of this book.” Anne Heche said her mother did not believe Anne’s claims that her father molested her from the time she was a toddler until she was 12.
Her daughter’s revelations about her relationship with DeGeneres brought up painful memories for Nancy, who said she didn’t know her husband was gay until he lay dying at Bellevue Hospital in 1983 and a doctor told her he had AIDS.
She wrote that she never knew about her husband’s double life because she was a “50s girl” who “grew up with Donna Reed, ‘Leave it to Beaver’ and Doris Day.”
When Heche learned of her husband’s AIDS diagnosis, it suddenly “clicked,” she wrote.
“The dots connect like a stick of dynamite – the fuse sizzling toward explosion. I realize I have lied to my entire married life.” | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/world/anne-heches-mom-nancy-survives-four-of-her-five-kids/298494/ | 2022-08-13T20:14:58Z | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/world/anne-heches-mom-nancy-survives-four-of-her-five-kids/298494/ | false | 2 |

Bruno Guimaraes believes it was 'not even close' to being his best performance but has praised Newcastle United supporters following the draw at Brighton. Eddie Howe's side produced two goalline clearances and had Nick Pope to thank for several key stops in the goalless draw against the Seagulls.
Guimaraes kept his place in the starting eleven as the Magpies head coach made just one change from the side which recorded a comfortable opening-day win over Nottingham Forest. Sven Botman made his full black-and-white debut, with Dan Burn shifted to left-back in place of Matt Target who was ruled out with a dead leg.
Brighton came into the contest on the back of a historic victory at Old Trafford, with a Pascal Gross double sealing a 2-1 victory against Manchester United. Graham Potter's side fashioned the clearest openings on Saturday afternoon, but were unable to find a way through a resilient rearguard display.

Guimaraes has been consistently impressive for Newcastle since making the move from Lyon in January, and a long-term injury to Jonjo Shelvey means the 24-year-old is likely one of the first names on the teamsheet in the coming months. However, the midfielder was unable to dictate proceedings in his usual fashion at the Amex Stadium.
Guimaraes took to social media following the draw to praise the role of supporters in earning an 'important point', while accepting it was not his best display in black-and-white. He posted: "Not even close to be my best game, but we keep 1 important point and another clean sheat [sic], let’s keep working for the news [sic] challenges. Thanks Geordies for the best support as always."
United fans were quick to urge Guimaraes not to dwell on his afternoon's work, instead pushing the midfielder to focus on returning to his best next weekend against Manchester City. One supporter replied: "You did your best today mate they are a very good side, we take a point and keep going!"
Another fan commented: "You will come back bigger and stronger Bruno. Great point today in a tough game. Onwards and upwards."

Things go from bad to worse for Erik ten Hag
If the new Manchester United manager thought it was bad against Brighton last weekend, this was even worse. Much worse. Brentford were 4-0 up with barely half an hour on the clock and then spent the rest of the game toying with Ten Hag's team. Embarrassment is an understatement.
Ten Hag, appointed in the summer from Ajax, is the first United manager to lose his first two competitive games since John Chapman in 1921 while United have now lost their last seven away matches -- their worst run since 1936. It's also four league defeats in a row -- stretching back to last season -- for the first time since 1979. Ten Hag -- who handed Cristiano Ronaldo his first start of the season -- responded to the dismal first-half performance by replacing Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez and Fred at half-time, but there were very few United players who deserved to stay on after the first 45 minutes.
He desperately needs new players before the transfer deadline but, maybe more importantly, he needs to see some fight from the ones he inherited. After two games, two defeats, and a goal difference of minus five, United are bottom of the Premier League table and it won't get any easier for Ten Hag. His next game is against Liverpool at Old Trafford on Aug. 22.

David De Gea has been Man United's No.1 goalkeeper for more than a decade but there is a strong argument that he should be dropped for Liverpool's visit to Old Trafford. He was caught on his line when Aston Villa scored a last-minute equaliser in a friendly in Perth and his season has only gone downhill from there. Ten Hag wants his team to play out from the goalkeeper and De Gea's passing was shaky in the defeat to Brighton.
Against Brentford, though, it was even more damaging. He had already let Josh Dasilva's tame shot squirm under his body to gift Brentford the opening goal when he tried to pass out to Christian Eriksen. The pass wasn't there, Eriksen was robbed by Mathias Jensen, who put Brentford 2-0 up inside the first 20 minutes.
With Dean Henderson sent on loan to Nottingham Forest, 36-year-old Tom Heaton -- who made just one appearance last season -- is the current No. 2 and would likely come in against Liverpool if Ten Hag decides to make a change. United are looking to add another goalkeeper before the transfer deadline and those efforts will intensify after De Gea's latest disaster.
Brentford get revenge
Thomas Frank was furious after Man United's visit to Brentford in January when Ralf Rangnick's team somehow managed to withstand a first-half battering to eventually win 3-1. Brentford were so good that night that they should have been out of sight by half-time but ultimately paid the price for a series of missed chances. They didn't make the same mistake again.
Brentford targeted Martinez with long passes to Ivan Toney, put pressure on the ball all over the pitch and played on United's inability to play out from the back to race into a 4-0 lead inside 35 minutes. They only needed 30% possession to do it and converted four of their seven shots on target in a clinical display that brutally exposed the fragility of a United team that seems bereft of technical ability and self belief.
Brentford didn't deserve to lose to United here last season but they more than made up for it this time with a dominant performance to ensure a first win in the new season. The headlines will be about United but Frank and his team deserve credit for a well-executed game plan which humiliated Ten Hag and his players.

Best and worst performers
BEST: Mathias Jensen, Brentford
There were plenty of Brentford performances worthy of note but Jensen, who got a goal and an assist, embodied the work-rate, fight and quality in Frank's team.
WORST: David De Gea, Manchester United
He made two glaring mistakes to allow Brentford to score two early goals but the entire United team should be embarrassed after such a pathetic display.

Erik ten Hag is only two games into managing Manchester United, and faces an uphill battle to deliver results.
If I was Ten Hag I'd genuinely resign after this. Get out now before your reputation is shredded.
After the match: What the managers, players said
"I think I cost three points to my team today to be honest. It was a poor performance from myself. Of course after the first mistake and the second it was very tough for the team to get playing. It was a horrible day." - Man United goalkeeper David De Gea
Key Stats (provided by ESPN Stats & Information)
This is the 1st time since Oct. 2020 that Man United has two errors leading to goals in a single Premier League game; the last time this happened they ended up losing 6-1 to Spurs.
This is only the third time Man United have been losing by four goals at half-time in Premier League history, the last times being a 5-0 loss to Liverpool in the 2021-22 season and a 6-1 loss to Tottenham in 2020-21.
Brentford made history against Manchester United, scoring four first-half goals for the first time in the top flight.
Erik ten Hag is the first Manchester United manager to lose his first two league games since John Chapman, who took over in November 1921 and lost back-to-back matches against Middlesbrough.

BENGALURU: The number of people fined for smoking in public spaces in the past three years is highest in Karnataka, touching 35 per cent of the total people fined in India. Despite the fine, public smoking continues and activists say they only marginally helped enforce the ban.
“Karnataka has been the leading enforcer of COTPA (Cigarettes and Tobacco Products Act) and various initiatives have been taken by the state to educate all stakeholders to make them compliant with the Act,” explained Dr Sharanappa SD, DCP East. He said the aim is to regulate public smoking and not prohibit it completely, and they have been taking up initiatives but have a long way to go.
“The number of fines collected for public smoking is the highest, but this has only marginally improved the condition in the state,” said SJ Chander, Consortium of Tobacco Free Karnataka. There is rampant violation of COTPA and people continue to smoke near tea stalls, paan shops and other public spaces. He claimed that tobacco industries reimburse fines to tea stalls, and encourage violations because they don’t want to lose customers.
In all, 5.07 lakh people were fined from April 2019 to March 2022 in Karnataka, which is 35 per cent of the total 14.40 lakh people fined in India for smoking in public, according to data curated by Stats of India. Of the total fines, 50 per cent were imposed in Karnataka and Kerala.
Chander suggested that the fine of Rs 200 is low, and must be increased to create enforcement. Dr Sharanappa replied to this, stating that in an urban setup, the amount might be less but for people working in rural areas, it is a lot. He added that the labour class is a major consumer of tobacco-related products.
Meghana, a resident of Indiranagar, said she has seen people smoking around shops. Enforcement is not done properly, as money is taken from them but they are not prevented from smoking for the sake of their health. She also said there was a bias towards women smoking in public, as she was once caught and threatened by police, but a man smoking just beside her walked away and was not stopped. | https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/bengaluru/2022/aug/13/state-pays-highest-fines-but-smokes-like-a-chimney-2487049.html | 2022-08-13T20:34:39Z | https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/bengaluru/2022/aug/13/state-pays-highest-fines-but-smokes-like-a-chimney-2487049.html | true | 1 |
NEW DELHI: A 25-year-old man was chased and allegedly stabbed to death by a group of men following an argument near a busy market in south Delhi's Malviya Nagar area, police said on Friday.
The incident was caught on a CCTV camera, footage from which was shared widely on social media.
According to police, they have detained three persons in connection with the incident.
On Thursday, police received a call about the stabbing of a man near gate number 3 of Begumpur's DDA Market, a senior police officer said.
The man was rushed to AIIMS Trauma Centre, from where police found that the injured was one Mayank Panwar, a resident of Shahpur Jat, Deputy Commissioner of Police (south) Benita Mary Jaiker said.
Vikas Panwar, Mayank's friend, told police that the incident happened around 7 pm Thursday when they both were sitting at Qila, Begumpur in Malviya Nagar, where 4-5 men picked up an argument with Mayank, the DCP said.
After the argument, they went away, but soon returned and pelted stones at them, police said.
Vikas and Mayank tried to flee, but the group chased down Mayank near gate number 3 of the DDA Market and stabbed him multiple times, the DCP said.
In the video, Mayank is seen running and being chased by some people.
They catch up with him near a car and one of the accused, wearing white pants, stabs him several times and later leaves the spot.
A case under sections 302 (murder) and 34 (common intention) of the IPC has been registered and an investigation is on, police said.
The motive behind the incident is yet to be ascertained.
Mayank had done a course in hotel management and was currently unemployed, police said.
One of Mayank's family members said that he had called his friend Vikram for help.
"Mayank was a very kind and friendly person. We are not aware of any enmity, he was not that kind of guy. He was taken to hospital where doctors tried their best, but could not save him," he said.
"He was bleeding on the spot, but nobody came for help. He had called Vikram for help when he realised that people were chasing him. Vikram found him lying on the ground."
Manish Pawar, a cousin of the deceased, said similar incidents have occurred in the area earlier also.
He said he was home when he got a call telling him about the incident.
"When my brother went to the spot, he came to know that the accused had attacked Mayank with sharp-edged weapons and he was injured. He was taken to a hospital where he died," Manish said.
"The accused were not known to us. Earlier also, incidents related to snatching and all have taken place in that area," he said.
Speaking to reporters, Mayank's uncle Pradeep Panwar said that the deceased left his home around 2 pm on Thursday and went with his friends.
"Later, I received information regarding the incident and reached the hospital," Pradeep said. | https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/delhi/2022/aug/12/man-stabbed-to-death-in-south-delhis-malviya-nagar-murder-caught-on-cctv-2486950.html | 2022-08-13T20:36:51Z | https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/delhi/2022/aug/12/man-stabbed-to-death-in-south-delhis-malviya-nagar-murder-caught-on-cctv-2486950.html | true | 2 |
None in city hospitalised with Covid post booster shots: Hakim
Kolkata: Mayor Firhad Hakim said on Saturday that COVID-19 booster dose is yielding positive results considering the fact that there has not been a single hospitalisation in Kolkata for people who have taken the booster dose.
"Few people have tested Covid positive after taking the booster dose but there has not been a single hospitalisation for these patients. Currently, people who are testing positive have either availed a single dose or double dose," said Hakim.
The Covid positive cases in the city are hovering in the 150-mark which is not all worrying.
"I urge those who have not yet taken booster dose to avail the same so that positive cases are reduced further," the Mayor added.
KMC has started administering booster doses to the people of the age group 18-59 at 150 UPHCs (Urban Primary Health Centres), including mega centres completely free of cost from mid July.
The detailed list of the vaccination centres are uploaded in the Twitter handle of KMC and its website kmc.gov.in for the benefit of the common people on a daily basis.
Bengal on Saturday registered 461 fresh Covid cases with positivity rate standing at 4.11 per cent. Covid positivity rate on Friday stood at 4.80 per cent. State registered the positivity rate at 5.02 per cent on Thursday. Recovery rate touched 98.70 per cent on Saturday.
There are currently around 184 people who are undergoing treatment at hospitals with Covid infection. Around 5,700 patients are in home isolation. Covid fatality stands at 1.02 per cent for over three weeks. Around 11,209 samples were tested in the state on Saturday. State has so far carried out 26,129,626 sample tests so far till date.

Preseason is the perfect time to experiment. Amid the constant churn of lineup alterations and general chaos of the opening few games of football, it gives coaches an opportunity to try out new formations, new partnerships, new plays — all in the hope of obtaining the slightest advantage.
Kansas City's coaching staff is no exception, with Chiefs special team coordinator Dave Toub shuffling the deck a bit in the preseason game vs. Chicago. After Kansas City scored a touchdown late in the first half, Toub called on the team's starting safety, Justin Reid, to kick the PAT.
He proceeded to put his kick right down the middle.
And the kick is good from...@Chiefs safety @JustinqReid ‼️

The decision to give Reed a go at kicker didn't exactly come out of thin air. Reid took a kickoff for the Texans back in a 2021 preseason game.
He nearly got it in the end zone, too.

Reid also hit a 65-yard field goal during the Chiefs training camp this summer. I mean, look at that form.
The 25-year old earned serious plaudits for his kicking acumen. Apparently, that caught the attention of his Chiefs coaches, who let Reid take some kicks during warmups.
His pregame attempts were fairly clean, opening the door for Reid to lace his kicking boots up in the second quarter.
It hasn't always been smooth sailing, however. He missed a field goal attempt so badly during training camp that it prompted Toub to tell reporters the Chiefs were looking for a backup kicker for starter Harrison Butker.
After calmly splitting the uprights against Chicago, though, make no doubt about it: Reid believes that job is his.
"That backup kicking position is locked up," Reid said. | https://www.sportingnews.com/au/nfl/news/chiefs-justin-reid-extra-point-preseason/xnwy6votcvkplqqfuthe30l2 | 2022-08-13T20:51:47Z | https://www.sportingnews.com/au/nfl/news/chiefs-justin-reid-extra-point-preseason/xnwy6votcvkplqqfuthe30l2 | true | 2 |

An NBC News report states: "... the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 1 in 5 insulin users on private health insurance pay more than $35 per month — or $420 a year — for the lifesaving medication. Patients usually need to buy multiple vials a month to maintain their health, which can sometimes cause costs to skyrocket."
Are you aware that the three largest manufacturers of insulin, Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk and Sanofi, made combined net profits of about $20.5 billion last year? And remember that Republicans during the last administration dropped the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent?
Does that seem fair?
What do Republican congressional candidates have to say about it? What would they do, if elected, if an insulin cap comes up again? I'm thinking specifically about Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro, a Republican who is campaigning for a seat in the House of Representatives, and former political news commentator Joe Pinion who is campaigning against Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer. Rep. Elise Stefanik, shamefully, already has voted against a cap.
Some 1.6 million voting-age New York diabetics deserve to know their answers.

OrphoMed, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class dimer therapeutics, today announced positive results from the recent Phase 2 study of ORP-101 for treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D). The double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12-week response adaptive randomization study investigated once-daily doses of 100 mg and 50 mg of ORP-101 vs. placebo. The 100 mg dose was more effective than placebo, whereas the 50 mg dose did not achieve statistical separation. Overall, ORP-101 was safe and well tolerated in all patients. Importantly, ORP-101 was also effective and safe in post-cholecystectomy IBS-D patients at the 100 mg dose throughout the treatment period.
The primary efficacy endpoint (composite responder rate) was defined as the proportion of patients who recorded a reduction of 30% or more from baseline in the daily average score for the worst abdominal pain for at least 50% of days assessed and, on same days, a daily average stool consistency score of <5 (on a scale of 1-7, with 1 indicating hard stool and 7 indicating watery diarrhea) over the 12-week treatment period. In the final analysis, of the 320 randomized patients, 20 patients were excluded per protocol from the analysis because they were unable to comply with the study requirements due to COVID-19 lockdowns. The protocol also required investigators to follow up with patients who used loperamide excessively during the trial. These 36 patients were designated as non-responders.
For the primary efficacy endpoint, ORP-101 100 mg was superior to placebo (p=0.008). It was also significantly better than placebo on secondary and exploratory endpoints, including stool consistency, IBS abdominal relief, global symptoms, IBS quality of life, and average weekly abdominal pain, discomfort, and bloating, and fewer episodes of bowel incontinence. On the secondary endpoint of abdominal pain, ORP-101 also showed a strong trend toward efficacy with a treatment difference of 8.5 percentage points.
In IBS-D post-cholecystectomy patients (n=85), the treatment effect was more robust, with an approximately 18 percentage point difference in composite responder rate between ORP-101 100 mg and placebo, p=0.04.
Overall, ORP-101 demonstrated a favorable safety profile. ORP-101 100 mg met its primary endpoint in this Phase 2 study, notably without constipation as an adverse event and without opioid central nervous system effects (euphoria, motor or respiratory effects, drunkenness, etc.). ORP-101 100 mg was safe in patients without gallbladder over the 12-week treatment period, as there was no observed elevation in pancreatic enzymes or sphincter of Oddi spasms.
Study Chairman Anthony Lembo, M.D. stated, "Based on the results of this Phase 2 trial, ORP-101 has the potential to be an effective and safe treatment without evidence of constipation for patients with IBS-D, including those without gallbladders."
Gary Phillips, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of OrphoMed stated, "These favorable Phase 2 data represent a major milestone for ORP-101 and for OrphoMed as an emerging biotech, as they provide clinical proof of concept and dose for further investigation in the Phase 3 study. Furthermore, the clinical results for ORP-101 validate the dimer therapeutics approach on which OrphoMed was founded. I am looking forward to moving ORP-101 into later stages of development."
About the ORP-101 Phase 2 Trial
The trial was a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, response-adaptive randomization study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ORP-101 in 320 patients with IBS-D. Study participants were randomized to receive one of two different doses of ORP-101 tablets or placebo for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was percentage of patients who were composite responders, based on improvements from baseline in daily worst abdominal pain and daily stool consistency scores. Secondary endpoints included percentage of participants who were responders in the following assessments: daily worst abdominal pain, daily stool consistency, IBS global symptom, IBS adequate relief, modified composite response, daily abdominal discomfort, daily abdominal bloating, number of bowel movements per day, and number of bowel incontinence-free days.
For the final statistical analysis, which occurred approximately 14 weeks after the last patient was randomized, a one-sided p-value was calculated for the two-sample proportion test comparing patients in the optimal active arm versus placebo.

MIAMI (AP) — Chadwick Tromp doubled twice, singled and drove in three runs in his first major league action of the season, leading the Atlanta Braves over the Miami Marlins 5-2 Saturday in the opening game of a doubleheader.
Matt Olson homered and Ronald Acuña Jr. and Robbie Grossman had two hits each for the Braves, who won their fourth straight after losing four of five to the NL East-leading New York Mets.
Atlanta starter Kyle Muller scattered two runs and three hits in five innings. Recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett earlier Saturday, Muller (1-1) walked one and struck out five.
The Marlins have lost 11 of 12 at home and scored 21 runs total through their first 11 games in August.
The 27-year-old Tromp played 33 games for San Francisco in the past two seasons. The Braves claimed the catcher off waivers last September.
Tromp’s two-run double with the bases loaded capped a three-run fourth and put Atlanta ahead 3-0. Tromp limped as he reached second, prompting immediate attention from Braves training personnel, but he remained in the game.
Miami reduced the gap on Jesús Aguilar’s two-run homer in the bottom half. Aguilar drove a slider from Muller into the seats in left for his 14th home run.
Olson connected off Marlins starter Jesús Luzardo for a solo drive in the fifth and second homer of the series.
The Braves padded their lead on Tromp’s RBI single in the eighth. Perhaps feeling the effects of his earlier double, Tromp stayed at first as the line drive rolled into foul territory in deep left.
Jackson Stephens relieved Muller and pitched two scoreless innings. Raisel Iglesias got the three outs in the eighth before Kenley Jansen closed with a scoreless ninth for his 26th save.
Luzardo (3-5) allowed four runs and seven hits in five innings. The left-hander walked two and struck out six.
ROSTER MOVES
The Braves optioned RHP Jay Jackson to Triple-A Gwinnett to open Muller’s spot on the roster.
The Marlins selected RHP A.J. Ladwig from Double-A Pensacola as their 27th man for the doubleheader.
RETURNING TO OLD STOMPING GROUNDS
Former Dallas Cowboys and Miami Dolphins coach Jimmy Johnson threw the ceremonial first pitch before the game. Johnson also spent five seasons at the University of Miami, where the Hall of Fame coach guided the Hurricanes to the 1987 national championship. The Hurricanes played their home games at the Orange Bowl until the facility was razed to build the Marlins’ current home stadium.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Marlins: INF Jazz Chisholm Jr. (right lower back strain) continues to rehab at the club’s spring training facility in Jupiter, but has not moved into baseball activities. … OF Avisaíl García (left hamstring strain) is continuing his strengthening exercises and began a running program Friday.
UP NEXT
Braves: RHP Ian Anderson (9-6, 5.11) will start the second game of the doubleheader Saturday night. The club has not announced a starter for the series finale Sunday.
Marlins: have not announced a starter for the second game, while LHP Braxton Garrett (2-6, 4.02) will start Sunday.

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Sam Darnold threw a touchdown pass and Baker Mayfield was solid aside from a fumbled snap in the latest stage of the Carolina Panthers quarterback competition, a 23-21 preseason-opening victory Saturday at the Washington Commanders.
Mayfield started and completed four of seven passes for 45 yards. He scurried for 3 yards on one play and botched the exchange with center Pat Elflein just inside the red zone, contributing to the first drive stalling and ending with a field goal.
Darnold took over with Carolina in the red zone after a fumble by Washington's Antonio Gibson and completed a play-action fade pass under pressure to Rashard Higgins for an 8-yard TD. After coach Matt Rhule said he expected each QB to play one series and get six to eight snaps, Darnold went back for a second drive, threw incomplete on third down and finished 2 of 3 for 16 yards.
Mayfield and Darnold operated an offense missing running back Christian McCaffrey and wide receiver D.J. Moore, who were among the Carolina players held out.
Since the start of training camp, Mayfield and Darnold have been competing for the starting job, splitting snaps in practice. The team isn’t expected to choose a starter for Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns Sept. 11 until after the second preseason game because Rhule doesn’t want to rush into making the wrong choice.
While Mayfield has been more productive in practice, Rhule hasn’t previously given any indication as to who is leading the competition.
There's no such competition in Washington for the first time in years, and Carson Wentz looked good in his debut for the franchise that played its first game as the Commanders. In his first exhibition action with his third different NFL team in as many years, Wentz was 10 of 13 for 74 yards and led a 14-play, 82-yard drive that culminated in a touchdown ru n by rookie Brian Robinson Jr.
QBS OF THE FUTURE?
The Commanders and Panthers each had a rookie quarterback who could be part of the future get some second-half snaps. Washington's Sam Howell impressed more than Carolina's Matt Corral.
Howell, once a projected top-10 pick who fell to the fifth round after his junior season at North Carolina, took over for Taylor Heinicke early in the third quarter and was 9 of 16 for 143 yards. He also juked out a few defenders on a 17-yard touchdown run, his first of two before a 2-point-conversion that put Washington up with 2:26 left.
Corral, a third-rounder out of Mississippi, entered in the fourth quarter and was 1 of 9 for 11 yards but also led the drive that ended with Zane Gonzalez's 45-yard go-ahead field goal in the final minute.
GIBSON FUMBLING CONTINUES
Gibson fumbled on his second — and what turned out to be his final — carry of the game, continuing a troubling trend that worsened last season, his second as a pro. Gibson fumbled six times and lost the ball four of those times in 2021, and struggles to stay fully healthy led Washington to look for a running back high in the draft.
Robinson, that choice as a third-round pick out of Alabama, impressed in relief of Gibson. He rushed six times for 26 yards, including an 8-yard TD run, and caught two passes for 15 yards.
UP NEXT
Panthers: Visit the New England Patriots on Friday in each team's second preseason game.
Commanders: Visit the Kansas Chiefs next Saturday in a reunion between Ron Rivera and mentor Andy Reid.

John Fetterman, ‘grateful’ in return to PA Senate race, rips Oz and leaves supporters analyzing his health
(ERIE, Pa.) — In front of a crowd nearly triple the anticipated turnout, John Fetterman, the Democratic nominee for Senate in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, spoke for roughly 11 minutes on Friday in his first public campaign appearance since suffering a stroke in May.
Dressed in a hoodie and flanked by his wife, Gisele Barreto Fetterman, at a convention center in Erie, Fetterman discussed his stroke and threw jabs at his Republican opponent, Dr. Mehmet Oz, in front of an energized crowd his campaign said exceeded 1,300 people.
The lieutenant governor briefly paused in the middle of several sentences and sometimes repeated words. In an interview last month with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, he said he was working with a speech therapist and insisted he had “nothing to hide” regarding his health.
“Tomorrow is, three months ago, my life could have ended,” he said, remembering the moment he said his wife noticed he was having a stroke on the way to a campaign event. “Let me just tell you right now, in front of everyone, Gisele saved my life.”
“Tonight, for me, it’s about being grateful,” he said.
Keeping his remarks light on policy, Fetterman took several shots at Oz, whose campaign has made a daily habit of reminding voters of Fetterman’s absence, publicizing a running “Basement Tracker.”
“Are we in Erie, or have I fit 1,400 people in my basement?” Fetterman roared at the start of his speech.
In a statement Friday night, Oz’s communications director, Brittany Yanick, called Fetterman “a no-show for the commonwealth” and said, “Pennsylvanians deserve answers now from Fetterman. It’s been far too long.”
Fetterman’s campaign chose Erie because its voters are notorious for being unpredictable and indicative of statewide margins. Donald Trump won Erie County in 2016 before it swung to Joe Biden four years later. The county was decided both years by fewer than 2,000 votes.
“If you can’t win Erie County, you can’t win Pennsylvania,” Fetterman said on stage.
Local leaders touted Fetterman’s popularity in Erie, saying it was a city where he often campaigned and vacationed.
“I think for a lot of people in this community, they look at somebody like John Fetterman and they go, ‘He understands us. He’s been here.’ They kind of think about him as a member of this community,” said Jim Wertz, Chair of the Erie County Democratic Party.
“Fetterman has spent more time here as an elected official than anyone I can remember since he first ran for Senate in 2016,” he added, referring to Fetterman’s first campaign for a U.S. Senate seat.
Fetterman’s campaign expressed enthusiasm after the event, with a spokeswoman, Emilia Rowland, telling ABC News she thought the lieutenant governor “sounded great” and that the campaign had hoped for a turnout of “500 at best.”
Liz Allen, president of the Erie City Council, said she was “impressed.”
Fetterman’s recovery from his stroke is personal for Allen, 70, a lifelong Erie resident, who described to ABC News her brother’s steady recovery from a stroke in 2019.
“My brother went back to work, but there was a period of time where he struggled to get the right word, and I think he is as sharp and as smart as ever,” she said. “I have seen somebody have a stroke and recover and it does take time.”
Some attendees told ABC News after the event they believed Fetterman did not look fully healthy.
Mark Rathi, 62, of Crawford County, said the candidate “seemed a little bit off his game” before adding that he supported Fetterman because of how he connects with people.
Rita Lynch, 82, told ABC News she was “glad [Fetterman] came, but I think he’s got to be careful because you could tell he was sweating a lot.”
Lynch said she hopes Fetterman’s campaign aides ease the candidate back onto the trail.
“I think it was a beginning for him, the first one since the stroke, and that’s always a challenge,” she said.
Bob Nierakto, 81, of Erie, said he was “disappointed” in what he called Fetterman’s lack of energy.
“It doesn’t matter why he lacked the energy. He just has to have it,” he said. “I was looking for the fire, I was looking for the passion, I was looking for the enthusiasm, and I was looking for him to nail it. And he didn’t nail it,” said Nierakto, adding that he was committed to voting for Fetterman in November.
“I’m waiting for him to come out so I can give him a talk,” he said with a laugh, as he stood by the exit.
